Facebook issues with posts

I'm hoping some kind and knowledgeable person can help,please.
I am on Facebook very regularly and post quite a bit on various pages.Today I did so and now I cannot see any replies,when I click on notifications it states

Content not found.Link may be broken or the page been removed.

I have traw!ed  through settings but cannot see anything obvious,and to be honest,don't really understand half of them.In simple terms,is there an easy fix ? It's really beginning to annoy me that i cant access my own posts !!

    Those kinds of messages would indicate to me that whatever post you made had been removed - either the post in its entirety or the specific reply you'd created. Were you the main post creator? or just a reply on an existing post? If the latter - can you still see their original post in the group?

    I should add that I can see the.number of people that have replied,and the post by searching the actual.group I posted on.But it's when I click to see the comments,I get the message.

    Maybe just internal gremlins then - give it 24 hours and see if it improves...

    On my computer this morning if i  go directly to my own posts within the group i belong,i can see comments and post myself.It is the notifications that bring up this message ,(on the computer is slightly different to my Amazon fire )

    This content isn't available at the moment
    When this happens, it's usually because the owner only shared it with a small group of people or changed who can see it, or it's been deleted.

    But it won't let me access them at all on my Fire

    The only other thing I can think of is if the subject matter being posted is 'contentious' in fb's moderation eyes. Sometimes people get put on the naughty step if algorithms pick up certain keywords. (An example being the local Welsh butchers near me that sells traditional Welsh faggots - facebook keeps giving them a warning and 'downgrading' their posts visibility - I'm not even sure the MSE filter will allow it - let's see)

    @Froglet can you still post new stuff/access the groups that the content is in  ? As @cymruchris suggests it may be that you've upset the matrix and your posting/access rights have been suspended

    Normally I'd see that message if the post had been deleted/removed but strange you see it if the content remains
