You can check the modlog to see the reason a post is removed (no search bar yet so you'll have to scroll through it). If it's not on there, then either the user deleted it, or as Osayidan said your instance may have accidentally dropped it.

Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

MODERATORS
Thank you for that link.
Yes the post is on the mod log. The deletion note says something about no link to the news source. But it clearly had a link.
Who knows.
Annoying since the post was gaining traction and votes. Posts about the hearings tend to be deleted due to the stigma of the topic.
Im suspect of the deletion here for the same reason.
Are you sure they're being deleted? Federation is a bit weird in that the instance you're browsing from might not have a piece of content for whatever reason (database rollback/restore or other issues) but if it was posted then it's out there somewhere on an instance that grabbed it while it was still up.
I’m pretty sure.
All the apps also error out when I try to view replies to my comment that was on said post.
The error is that the post cannot be found.
I’m pretty sure it’s been deleted. I’ll try to confirm that via federation logs though.
Most likely the poster deleted the comment. The replies still exist in the lemmyverse but you need a direct link. If a mod deletes a post or comment, you'll see it in the modlog.
I also see your account is on "infosec.pub" in the same way mine is on "social.vmdk.ca" so you can try searching on lemmy.world or some other instance for the post in question using keywords. For example I found this on lemmy.world directly while searching for UAP, no idea if it's what you're talking about. https://lemmy.world/post/1812373
Thanks.
According to the modlog here it was deleted by mods
There was a linked article but the reason says it was not a direct link to the source?
Annoying since it was gaining traction and posts on the topic tend to be deleted due to stigma. Was common on Reddit.
Actually the mod log shows alot of posts deleted for seemingly arbitrary reasons like:
“Activism” , “misleading”, “misinformation”, and “health” (?)
Hate seeing news articles being so strictly filtered.
Well, we're on lemmy. Don't like the mods actions? Make your own community, hell, your own instance.
Probably because it's US internal news. This place is for non US news
Check the modlog.
The only recent removed post from this community related to the UAP hearings was an hour ago and the modlog shows exactly what it was removed: because it failed to provide a link to the direct news article
I don't know about that post specifically but Lemmy keeps a modlog for mod/admin actions if you want to look. If it was removed it should be there with the reason. It's linked in the community sidebar. Or here for this community: https://lemmy.world/modlog/2840
Don't worry about it
