A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I'm not convinced that is actually happening. I think it's usually that people deleted when subreddits were private and then things that were not deleted appear when the sub reopens. Sort of dumb that you can't access or delete all your content even when a subreddit is private, but there are also wierd things like you can't see your own comments that were made to people that have blocked you. Dunno if that content reappears of people who have blocked you delete their accounts. Basically... Reddit is dumb.
Other reports sound like errors and bugs.
Chances are that many users are currently deleting masses of content. The server probably has limited resources for those types of activities. Robust design would give error screens, but yeah.
