    They should have wiped their posts and comments before deleting. Fuck reddit.

        I used some script some dude made back then, changed all the text "if you can read this, Spez did not only fuck up reddit, but also performed vasectomy on my old account and revived this comment, which used to be meaningful“

          I’d be surprised if that’s still what it says. They have the edit history, they could roll it back whenever.

          I guarantee with 100% certainty that that isn’t what they’re feeding into their AI, as well. You just planted a great big flagpole on all your old content that states “this account was previously run by a real live human” and probably doubled the value of the edited comments for AI training. Bots don’t have a reason to protest-edit their content.

          I approve of the attitude, but spez has got us in a vice here where any attempt to damage reddit’s data store is actually just helping them. Best thing to do at this point is to scrub them from memory and just ignore them forever. Unless you’re up for some seriously large-scale corporate sabotage, that’s the best we’ve got.

      The Shitposting argument style is the disruption in online conversations, usually of significant issues of discourse such as political and social issues, by making proofless and inflammatory claims that derail the conversation. The arguments are just reasonable enough that they come across as genuine beliefs and move the conversation to an irrelevant discussion.

      Shitposting is just the new name for trolling after trolling was changed to mean online bullying.

        I’ve never seen shitposting used like in this definition. It’s just making low effort posts
