Other users were reporting their deleted content was back after some time.

I thought I read that it was due to people trying to delete from subs that were private so it didn't succeed. I deleted my account and all content several days before the blackout and all mine are still gone.

Some of such reports probably are due the users not checking if their comments were actually deleted. Some say they checked their comments were deleted and then were restored. Even if the second group is correct and reddit admins do restore deleted content, your content may still be gone because it was removed before the snapshots reddit admins are using to restore deleted content.

Ah, good point.
