I did the same, and I also cancelled my premium account (I know, I shouldn’t have paid for it in the first place).

There is a sub called r/lounge which is a “reward” for paying for Reddit Premium, and you also get temporary access if your post gets gilded. It’s a pretty inane sub mainly for just idle chatting, but I really noticed the amount of posts in there drop off a cliff in the final week. They hide the subscriber count, so you can’t see how many members there are. But just judging by post activity, I guarantee that it at least cut in half.

If I could access my 15 year old account, if probably do the same. 2FA fucked me over lol

Baconreader or bust!

So heads up: I’ve seen comments from some users that their deleted comments on Reddit had been restored. Haven’t personally seen it myself as this is all anecdotal, but if you’ve deleted your comments on Reddit, you might want to go check from time to time.

I have really mixed feelings about all this. I don’t support Reddit and it’s stupid choices but deleting comments and such is more of a blow to the community and anyone who needs that past knowledge than it is to Reddit at large.

Searching the internet really sucks these days.
