Show HN: GhostedWatch, an extension that detects silent removals on patriots.win

https://ghostedwatch.com/
2•rhaksw•56m ago
Hi HN, I built Reveddit [1] a few years ago to let Reddit users know when their comments get secretly removed. I've now built GhostedWatch to do the same thing for the .win sites (patriots.win, scored.co, and a few other .win sites).

The problem is the same one. When a moderator removes your post or comment on these sites, you still see it. Everyone else sees "removed by community filter." There's no notification and no indication that anything changed. You'd never find out unless you logged out and checked, which almost nobody thinks to do.

GhostedWatch is a browser extension that monitors your posts and comments and tells you when one gets removed. It shows you what you posted, labels who removed it and how, and confirms what logged-out visitors actually see. You can also watch other people's content and get notified when anything disappears.

Everything runs in the browser. No servers of mine, no analytics, no tracking. It reads your content through the same API endpoints the site already uses.

The principle hasn't changed since I started working on this. Moderation is fine. Secret moderation is the problem, and it's the same problem everywhere.

Let me know what you think.
