I posted this:

https://slrpnk.net/post/2479741

It wasn’t deleted but it has been scrubbed off the timeline of https://feddit.nl/c/thenetherlands -- yet the modlog is empty. What happened here?

It could be legit.

It might be interesting for #Lemmy to add a smart algo that checks whether a rapid sequence of down votes occurs in a short span of time and see if the set of accounts used for the down voting shows a voting pattern with other posts. Or even without timing analysis, voting patterns alone might reveal accounts used for timeline tampering particularly if the same IP address is used.
