I feel that way about most deniers/conspiracy theorists/religious nuts etc but we’re always going to have them.

I wouldn’t be sad if these flat earthers went to find this supposed edge of the world and jumped off though. We have enough problems here on “God’s dinner plate flying through space.”

I guess nobody told them that you never throw water on a greece fire.

If you ran those scripts while subreddits were dark, the script can’t see those comments you made in those particular subs, (they’re hidden along with the sub) and can’t delete them. Then later when the sub comes back to public mode, your comments will appear as well. So comments you thought you wiped were simply hiding.

Just to add, also check the other sections on your comments when deleting (eg: hot/controversial) because sometimes those ones get missed by the scripts as well.

Not to say that’s the only thing going on… wouldn’t surprise me if they are bringing back some stuff considering their history of shenannigans.

You’ve got to remember that these are just simple redditors. These are people of the land. The common clay of the interwebs. You know…

I’ve always understood the saying to just mean to pay attention to all the little details.

(Insert Principle Skinner meme here)

When you use a comment deleter app they cannot delete comments from subs marked private. (They’re hidden) So if you ran a deleter app in the last week while the subs were protesting a lot of your comments wouldn’t have been axed on the participating subs. Once the subs come back to normal from private mode, you’ll see those comments appear even though you thought you deleted everything. I’ve had over 200 comments come back from as far back as 11 years ago due to that.
