This is pissing me off to no end. I went on reddit and signed in out of habbit as I have a couple times already and before my account was gone and it wouldnt let me sign in.

Now I did it again and realized that my account actually was undeleted and allowed me to login AND all the posts that I overwrited and deleted with Power Delete Suite where back. I am so pissed right now.

          I’ve been wondering if Reddit has been fucking with stuff just since the API stuff started. This is a data point indicating yes.

            On the one hand CDNs not updating would explain it. On the other? Given how twitter tried ‘not-banning’ people to keep numbers inflated but muzzle dissent? A little paranoia is warrented.

            Just… keep away from the tinfoil.

              Especially since spez said he is inspired by Musk’s handling of Twitter…

      I have a feeling they’re going to undelete any activity within the past or next few weeks. I personally am leaving Reddit alone for now. In another two or three weeks (months?), I plan to go in and delete all my old posts slowly over time (or replace with some statement about moving to kbin social).

      I’ll likely write a manual automated script to parse through and overwrite over a decade’s worth of comments/postings to ensure it’s erased/gone.

      But for now I’ve blocked the reddit domains from my router so I don’t accidentally visit the site and ensure they see zero traffic from my IP address
