A screenshot, taken way before rexxit, of two comments on reddit, dated "1 year ago".

The first comment is by a deleted user and the comment has been removed. The second comment is a reply to the deleted comment and it says: "That solved it. Thanks!"

Edit: added temporal context.

If it says removed doesn't that mean its a mod (or admin) action? My understanding is that it would say deleted if the user removed it.

I think you're going to begin to see a lot of that on Reddit. I overwrote and delete my ~10 years of comments and posts before deleting my account. I imagine a significant number of others have/will too.

Yeah, I gave advice on some smaller / niche, topics. I didn't delete the whole thing, only my most upvoted and/or most recent comments (I went all the way to december 2022, and every comment with more than 20 upvotes). Replaced it all with a link to my kbin.

It was kind of sad reading all the replies that were like "we should put this comment in the FAQ / this is the best comment / this covers everything". I was very throughout and loved speading what I learned, and it pains me a little that the few times I lurked in those communities since moving to kbin I see lots of unanswered pleads for advice or straight up terrible advice being given... but honestly, I don't want reddit to benefit for what I spent years researching and gathering resources

I see lots of them. Unpopular opinion but I think going back and deleting every single comment you made is an over the top method of protesting the API charges. Lots of interesting conversations are now gone forever.

This is the reason I didn't delete my reddit content. It's very annoying when the only post/comment related to my issue is on reddit, and it's been deleted. I don't want to be a part of that problem.

I just came from another discussion on whether it's a good or bad thing that others can still see the username on some Lemmy instances even after comments get deleted. What do you guys think? I'd really hate to be the person in that image who would likely be flooded by DMs asking for solutions.

On the one hand you have to be more careful. On Reddit I could regularly purge my account and that would keep privacy from most low hanging fruit. Allowing me to share a bit more than I normally would.

On the other hand you know this going in. Reddit used to be more private but dickheads like the Pushshift guy would try work around that and then offer to honor privacy, but ignore requests etc. So it BECAME more complex.

Though honestly anything you type should be considered public record and something you would be willing to say at a coffee shop. However I have had people select context and try and dox me. So I try and keep it just vague enough.
