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 got a message on Reddit yesterday cussing me out for editing all of my comments there.
Someone was mad that a comment of mine that would have been helpful to him was edited, so they couldn’t read it.
I didn’t reply but in my head I was thinking “great, so it’s working”.
Seems like they’re speeding up their own decline.
I thought they restored all the edited comments? Maybe I'll give it a go then.
I might be wrong, but I think most of those issues were from people trying to edit comments that were in a subreddit that had gone private. I don't think the API could deal with that.
The first time I did it, a bunch of my comments were still there. I did it again, and after that it seems like all of mine have stayed edited (but I'm not going to check thoroughly, there were a lot)
