    I clicked a link that brought me to reddit yesterday, and you know ehat i noticed on the 5 month old thread? A bunch of deleted user names but the comments and info shared was still there under deleted

      They deleted their account without deleting the comment. It has always been this way in my experience.

      This is illegal, at least under the GDPR, so Reddit could be sued about that.

        My understanding is that it is only illegal if the information is personally identifiable… and posting such was against the rules anyway.

        It still pisses me off that they decided to rate limit comment edits/deletes just as everyone was making the exodus.
