I could be an idiot too though. Reddit might have been running this whole shit show on the original version of the database system and be upselling to buyers.
Will be interesting to see if they stoop so low as to allow this. Probably wouldn’t be a super wise move as most deleted posts are likely material that would not be great to train on anyway.
My first thought when I read this was, “well, not on MY posts” I’m clean off of reddit.
There are torrents of complete Reddit comment archives available for any random person who wants them, I’m sure Reddit themselves has a comprehensive edit history of everything.
Reddit has backups, permanently isn’t an option.
They’re not multiple though, edit it and then delete it and it’s gone. They disabled all the tools to do it though so it’s manually or nothing now.

They just reload a previous cached comment, doesn’t matter how many times you edit or delete, it’s all logged and backed up.

There have already been reports of people being banned and finding their posts restored in response to their attempts to delete them.
