Do you have any specific examples of the 'light criticism' or joke (including where it was posted) that directly caused the site-wide ban?

- himinlomax 4y agoI don't, because it's immediately scrubbed. But I've seen it happen ine real time.
- multjoy 4y agoVery convenient.
- himinlomax 4y agoWhat do you expect me to do? Hack reddit's Postgres databases to recover deleted comments?
- multjoy 4y agoOffer up something more than a vague "I saw this thing one time, trust me on this"?
- Dan_Sylveste 4y agoI saw this thing many times. Trust me on this.
- mgdlbp 4y agoThere are several tools for viewing them, primarily based on Pushshift, an apparently individual-run database that grabs whatever it can from the Reddit API, usually within a few minutes. The frontends come and go; currently the major ones are unddit.com and reveddit.com (which honours user deletions, refusing to show them). There are also Pushshift-based sitewide search engines: redditsearch.io is made by the Pushshift creator but doesn't show deleted content. ihsoyct.github.io does, but is unreliable, often randomly missing some comments and posts in any one run of a query. With the amount of constructive comments/posts removed for seemingly no reason nowadays, and the blight of users overwriting and/or deleting helpful, otherwise anonymous comments when making privacy purges, I find it now more pleasant to browse with all deleted content shown than without.
