View submission: Announcing the Crowd Control Beta
Ok. I find these collapses/removals/deletions a bit confusing.
So if I’m correct, there are 5 categories of states for comments, with lower taking precedence over higher:
┌─────────────┬────────────┬────────────┬────────────┬────────────┬────────────┐ │ Visibility │ Descriptio │ Visible to │ Visible to │ Visible to │ Visible to │ │ Type │ n │ Others │ Poster │ Mods │ Admins │ ╞══════���══════╪════════════╪════════════╪════════════╪════════════╪════════════╡ │ Visible │ Anyone can │ Visible │ Visible │ Visible │ Visible │ │ │ see │ │ │ │ │ ├─────────────┼────────────┼────────────┼────────────┼────────────┼────────────┤ │ │ Posted by │ │ │ │ │ │ │ new user │ │ │ │ │ │ Crowd │ in │ │ │ │ │ │ controlled │ subreddit │ Collapsed │ Visible │ Visible │ Visible │ │ │ with Crowd │ │ │ │ │ │ │ Control │ │ │ │ │ │ │ enabled │ │ │ │ │ ├─────────────┼────────────┼────────────┼────────────┼────────────┼────────────┤ │ │ below subr │ │ │ │ │ │ Downvoted │ eddit’s │ Collapsed │ Collapsed │ Visible │ Visible │ │ │ downvote │ │ │ │ │ │ │ threshold │ │ │ │ │ ├─────────────┼────────────┼─────���──────┼────────────┼────────────┼────────────┤ │ │ Comment │ │ Visible │ │ │ │ Shadowbanne │ was posted │ Invisible │ (no │ Visible │ Visible │ │ d │ by shadowb │ │ notice) │ │ │ │ │ anned user │ │ │ │ │ ├─────────────┼────────────┼────────────┼────────────┼────────────┼────────────┤ │ │ A │ │ │ │ │ │ Removed │ moderator, │ │ │ │ │ │ (with subca │ admin, or │ │ │ │ │ │ tegories │ bot has │ Invisible │ Visible │ Visible │ Visible │ │ for removal │ removed │ │ │ │ │ │ reason) │ this │ │ │ │ │ │ │ comment │ │ │ │ │ ├─────────────┼────────────┼────────────┼────────────┼────────────┼────────────┤ │ │ The poster │ │ │ │ │ │ │ has │ │ │ │ │ │ Deleted │ deleted │ Invisible │ Invisible │ Invisible │ Visible │ │ │ this │ │ │ │ │ │ │ comment │ │ │ │ │ └─────────────┴────────────┴────────────┴────────────┴────────────┴────────────┘
Then in addition, there is a subreddit-wide option to additionally collapse visible comments under an invisible parent comment.
Also, is the chat team for the live chat on posts the same as the Reddit Chat (/chat[1]) team?

Nice chart, but I have a couple of corrections.
The visibility of downvoted comments is adjustable on a per viewer setting basis and can be disabled by individuals. (Oh how I wish more of reddit's features worked this way!)
AFAIK there is no way to override this new feature.
Also removed comments should have (no notice) for the poster as well, they behave just like shadowbanned comments to the OP. Posts recently got improved transparency but the platform still lies to the poster when it comes to [removed] comments.
Also, it appears there is (no notice) for the poster of crowd controlled comments as well but the admins will not confirm/deny this.
