I’m especially curious to know if you made your own instances or communities. But if not, what other notable things have you done?

E: I guess I forgot to mention what I did, which was make a community and various posts. Considering making a full instance but I’ve never attempted something like that before.

    • Forked and fixed PDS so users can mass-edit comments and clean up / remove content from Reddit, while leaving a sign of the issue
    • Wiped my own accounts clean, editing all comments, deleted accounts
    • Have not gone back to reddit (won’t go back)
    • Started a community I didn’t see here (trying to start another but bugs)

        I wanted to edit my comments, not remove them.

        Reddit implemented a 5-second cooldown editing comments. PDS would report all comments edited but only a smattering of them would be in actuality. The last post on the PDS subreddit ( 2 years ago or something like that) was about this very issue.

        So I found a fork that had implemented a 5-second timer on comment edit operations and then finished the rest of the work: updating the bookmarlet, creating a new codepen, updating versions, readme, etc.) Hooray for open source!
