If they’re banned, then you won’t see their comments on their profile, just a banned icon. They might not see them on their own profile either on new reddit, however they can still access their profile on old reddit. This shows 1,000 comments in each list (New, Top, Hot, Controversial, with the date filters) but not necessarily everything.
Incidentally, the tools most people used to edit/delete their reddit history only targeted these lists, so they’d quite often miss things - if you had a profile with lots of comments over a long time, with old comments that had low but not controversial karma, then these wouldn’t end up in your profile lists. As of late 2022/early 2023. Aside from all the comments reddit restored after people deleted (which they blamed on their CDN issues, as if that somehow absolved them), many people thought they’d deleted everything but in fact they’d left plenty of comments behind. They then deleted their accounts and now cannot access them, the vast majority are probably unaware.
You should still be able to see their comments and posts where they are, so long as they haven’t been removed. However whatever got them banned was no doubt also removed.
Yep, and, at least until the API change, you could feed that into tools to make sure you got all of them. I didn’t see any of the comments I deleted in this way restored, however I did see comments restored when using the tools on my profile.
Why? Even in a world where OP is an asshole Reddit should still tell you what comment is getting you banned and give you the opportunity to dispute it. That’s the main problem here, unilateral decisions you never have any insight on.
True, but I hate getting people riled up and commenting, if in the end this guy was actually just a POS.
Edit: The web archive history shows they post in all the same type of communities and like talking about all of the same stuff that will get you the same end result here on Lemmy. Just seems like a human thing at this point when discussing politics/gender/sexuality. Like most other places it seems to take just a handful of people reporting you and you’re gone.
Well then I’d like OP to share his comment history with us.

Even if you’re banned, you can still make GDPR requests, which Reddit is required to comply with. They include your entire comment history.

Id rather confess to the murder
