Reddit is a trove of user built content under the guise of community. What Spez did was to say “thanks for all the free work, suckers!”, put a price sticker on it, and laughed all the way to the bank.
And this is why I’m not active on any Internet community anymore. Nevermind, I guess I just can’t help myself…

Active as in “creating meaningful contributions and contributing to the overall knowledge base”. I still shit post from time to time.
This is going to be a really weird thing to argue, but I just casually read through a bunch of your comments and they seem like meaningful contributions.
And that is another unintended example of why all of my post history was purged before migration.
Yeah, it’s all too late. Shit, PRISM was 2007, so there’s a copy of everything somewhere. Obviously different ends.
Depends. If they were smart they backed up every content that had a certain number of upvotes and/or a certain number of paragraphs and/or responses. Just to weed out all the 2-3 word comments that no one interacted with. If OP wrote mostly those then Reddit gives a shit about them deleting those.
