Update: As some have pointed out: the restores can be rollbacks from the server issues or post haven’t been properly deleted due to subs being private during blackouts. Many have experienced the same issue, I can’t explain how this happens. I’ll just run the script again, try the GDPR request and delete my account.
Also worth noting: according to the ToS Reddit can actually do whatever they want with existing content, apparently we agreed to this when signing up.
Holy damn. I deleted all my comments and my account ~a week ago. I don’t even know how to check if they restored something. 😠
I overwrote and then deleted all of my 14 year comment/post history and it came back complete. I hate to say it, but my guess is that it’ll all get restored.
