    If it got walled, I wish people who posted years of content there would just delete it since it’s no longer for general public

      I did that during the great exodus. Actually, I replaced all my comments with random book quotes six times over the course of two years before finally deleting them. So, if you ever have a question about obscure data lifecycle management techniques, cybersecurity, Destiny, data center power optimization, etc., and the chatbot replies with an excerpt of Jane Eyre or an nutritional breakdown of a tablespoon of almond oil, it took it from a backup of my old reddit account.

          Yeah, they replaced a bunch of mine at first. Its why I went through multiple iterations of text replacement over a couple of years. If they want to replace the text with the original, they’d have to a) notice that the text of the response.doesn’t match the comment it’s responding to, b) have to go back some random number between 5 to 8 iterations.

      I deleted all of my content there several years ago, and even going through and searching the old archives, most of it has been deleted and overwritten.

      Makes me sad because it was like a hundred k karma account, but worth it to prevent them from just turning all of my effort into a few extra pennies in their pockets.
