fuck that, the more people nuke their comments on reddit, the faster site becomes useless. The faster it become useless, the faster lemmy grows. So I say bombs away.
Comment on Every support thread on Reddit is literally this now
TankovayaDiviziya@lemmy.world 4 days agoYeah, I get so pissed when people nuke their comment history. Why do that when you don’t have too much of personal revealing information in that post or comment? Even one of the mods of AskHistorians expressed frustration of insightful posts and comments being deleted. I did not even delete my any of my posts before I deleted my Reddit account because there are no revealing information, and I know some of my posts and comments will be helpful for others.

You may disagree with the net effect of the decision, but the decision is not hard to understand. The people that are doing it are placing a larger value on harming Reddit as a platform to hopefully force corrective change or encourage movement to competing platforms. You place a larger value on preserving knowledge.
You say you get pissed. My question is do you get pissed at the person who deleted it, or do you get pissed at Reddit for alienating it’s own users to the point of deleting their own comments?

I have just read other people’s comments as to why Redditors delete their comments. But even before the enshitiffication, I and others find it frustrating when comments are deleted.

I do too. But I blame Reddit for that, not the users.
