It looks like they’re undeleting posts which means you won’t be able to go back and delete them again if your account is gone. I checked today and about 30% of my deleted posts were back.

Reddit will profit off your past content if it stays up in its current form. As an alternative to deleting, I’ve seen people suggesting editing your old text posts to be gibberish so that it will screw with the AI models that scour Reddit.

    I had some posts and comments come back twice already. They definitely were gone. I used redact. This morning I deleted 2 posts manually and they were back within 2 hours. I wouldn’t write Reddit off here. I’ll keep my account and will be watching this a little longer.

        On stuff coming back? I just checked and I had one old comment pop back up. So wild. Seems quite random

          Some people say it’s how the servers refresh or something when a bot is used. Just cross curious.
