Is Reddit going to revive the large number of high-value comments that people deleted in protest over Reddit locking down API, apps, etc.?
(Related question: Given how frequently the answer that Google sends me to is a Reddit comment that's been deleted... Has anyone gotten data on whether high-value contributors were disproportionately pissed off by Reddit, enough to throw away their legacy of contributions? The people who care the most, care the most? That's something we might guess if we thought through it ahead of time, was but I still surprised to see what looked like that in action.)
- minimaxir 2y agoThere would be some interesting GDPR implications for providing content that was supposed to be deleted.
- hsbauauvhabzb 2y agoI’m sure the coked up Reddit executives and coked up open ai sales teams really care about that one
- friedtofu 2y agoJust checked my ~12 year old account because I had been worried about just that, instead of deleting posts i edited them with lorem ipsum. I noticed on logging in that two of my posts above 400 karma and two submissions were both changed back to the original post - deleted the submissions and re-edited the posts; lets see how long it takes for reddit to revert them again...
- neilv 2y agoVery interesting. This is the first I've heard of posts being reverted.
- joshstrange 2y agoThere was a lot of talk about it around the time that Reddit did a rug-pull on their API. People deleting or editing comments and having them reverted/restored.
