This site has exactly what the article suggests. You can select the "showdead" option in your profile to see posts that have been removed.

It doesn't show users that have been removed though...

You do know that they actually permanently remove content on here sometimes, right? I love reading banned users posts! It is not the only tier of moderation at play though.

Showdead shows algorithmically shadowbanned accounts and domains and [most] flagged comments. It doesn't let accounts that Dang has withdrawn posting privileges from continue to post.

No, we don't. We only delete things outright when the author asks us to (and typically, when it didn't get any replies—otherwise we try redacting, reassigning to a different username, and/or other things).

Banned users can still post. Their posts are autokilled.

There have been a handful (fewer than 10) extreme cases over the years where we temporarily blocked someone from posting, but that almost never happens—it's an emergency measure.

For anyone wondering why we allow certain banned accounts to keep posting, even though what they post is so dreadful, the answer is that if we didn't, they would just create a new account and that new account would start off unbanned, which would be a step backwards.

But just removed comments. but it pretty heavily moderates titles and other stuff.

I stand corrected! For whatever reason I remember seeing a lot of blanked-out flagged posts when kiwifarms went down, but I could be remembering things wrong.

Perhaps it's that they were collapsed? Either that or not having 'showdead' turned on in your profile would be the two likeliest reasons.
