/r/science
While i agree r/science was terrible at this, it at least kept the conversation relevant. On new discoveries its nice to read about the science rather than: “here comes the end” or some fart joke.
Id like to think this meme is directed towards user exodus rather than moderation to keep things on topic. I hope that the fediverse keeps things on topic and doesn’t complain too much about moderation when it’s necessary.
All r/science was, was r/politics...every fucking "study" was from sudo science bullshit that just allowed everyone to circle jerk each other about their own bias. Hell that meav mod was just a repost bot that posted non stop from that psychology today website and then sold their account...and it's still a fuckin mod.
many times i stopped writing a comment when i realized i was on r/science
Me, too. Is r/science still there? Last I heard they opened up the sub again, contingent on very specific benchmarks for Reddit making their app functional for moderating that I sincerely doubt they will meet ...
Any time I'd use reveddit or similar sites to restore comments deleted from there, it was always stupid jokes or anecdotal stories, never anything directly about the post.
Every r/science post mentioning uranus
They started adding an automod comment where off-topic replies were allowed.
I think /r/science is misunderstood. The moderators had quite a clear vision on the kind of discussion they wanted and the kind they did not. This caused some friction every time a post reached /r/all but I don't see that as a bad thing.
If anything that's an ideal situation. People encounter a new community they're interested in, break some rules in ignorance, the mods interfere and the violations are rolled back, the new users then either follow the rules or leave.
Not sure how they're doing with the API changes, pretty sure they had some automation going. Don't think they're compatible with reddit's new view on making communities as interchangeable as possible to stop friction from interfering with ad revenue.
All it needs is a fuckton of awards next to one of the [removed] comments, so you know that what you missed was worth reading.
Fuck the major subs. I don't miss that arbitrary shit at all. And may I just add, fuck AwkwardtheTurtle in particular: seeing them get eaten by their own antics was just -chef's kiss-
Good, good…let the Reddit brain drain continue. Do not fear the Lemmy. The lemmy welcomes you. maniacal laugh
I honestly think the Reddit thing is over. Redditors are a little toxic and condescending. There may not be as much content on Lemmy but it sure feels peaceful.
Reddit notifications scare me, usually it's a bot telling me I did something wrong or a human who wants to call me stupid and down vote my opinions. I stopped commenting because of this.
Us need to create content for them to exist!
Excuse me while I play my fiddle and watch the flames :D
Just needs a “what happened above?” Comment 😂
That's just beautiful
I've started seeing some deleted by creator comments here, lot of those with lots of upvotes.
Also: "removed by mod".
The beauty here, though, is you can easily cross-reference on the mod log what post was removed and why.
Makes it a lot easier for us former Reddit mods dealing with claims of persecution.

Joined Lemmy today for this exact reason.
It's because they were all banned by the mods
Also a lot of people remove all of their comments when quitting reddit. There are apps to do it, and thats what I did. So just from me there is over a thousand deleted comments to be encountered
When you delete a Reddit post or comment yourself, it says [deleted]. When it is removed by a subreddit mod, it says [removed] or if at the end of a comment chain, just doesn't appear at all. Occasionally an admin removed comment will say [Removed by Reddit] instead of just [removed] but not always.
I'm happy to explain that, though it seems like farting in the wind now that we're all gone, lol.
Shame I could do a better job of explaining it in three sentences than I have ever seen Reddit do anywhere, though.
I deleted all comments and posts when I deleted my account
I am ashamed to admit it but I was happy to have my search resources back when the protest slowed down till I clicked on a few and found out people with my interests care about Reddits bs too, therewasn't much left of many threads! 😂
I used web.archive.org to browse the Reddit communities during the blackout, I still actually use it in most cases because it helps both with subreddits that are still private, but also ones where people have deleted their threads.
It might not work with every single one, but it should work with the ones that appear in Google.
That's a big brain move for sure!
Well it certainly would be now
deleted by creator
I can find no good information on Reddit. Just all corporate shills
Ahh, such amazing content. I miss Reddit.
That's what it was like for the past year because the mods felt a need to lock and delete comments on 1/4 of all posts on the front page for "reasons". Fuck that shit hole. Let it die.
Such a pain to edit or delete comments one by one.
Permanently Deleted
It is, but its well worth it. What i found is that my comments from 2 or more years ago weren't showing on my profile. So although my profile seems empty, I still have historic comments on the platform that I can't get to unless I know every comment I made and where.
You can do a GDPR request and get the location of every single one, as long as you haven't deleted your account.
I think it would be better if it said something like "[removed] I've moved to Lemmy"or something like that
The guy throwing the chair makes most sense
Lol so true

I'm guilty of this as a mod sometimes. When i remove a comment i don't want to leave a hole in the thread, because then people will see replies to a deleted comment and wonder what they said; so i remove the replies as well, resulting in this.
It's pick your poison i guess
Stop doing this.
