Reddit is restoring deleted posts and comments (kbin.social)

A few days ago I deleted all of my posts and comments from reddit, but today they somehow reappeared.

I don't know if that's a bug or the admins themselves are restoring content, but I'm sure they'd have incentives to do so considering that they make money from your content, whether that is from generated clicks to the website or from selling those data to other companies to train AI models.

PDS automatically looks for everything in your new, top, controversial, and hot. Hot seems to be limited to 200 i think??? so the max you could get in theory is 3200, but what I found is that many entries show up in multiple places, unfortunately.

I modified one of the bots (using API key) to do the same thing and got a few hundred more comments overwritten that way.
