    OK, I stopped posting on Reddit but left my account and comments in place because I considered them part of the public record. If Reddit is taking that record private, it’s time for me to start removing my content from the platform.

    Does anyone know if historical Reddit content will remain in IA? If not, I’m going to have to back up years of content somewhere else.

          And you think reddit actually deletes it? Risk data loss? All that valuable data? No way. They might shadow delete it, but it’s there forever.

      I’m assuming IA will continue to host their historical archives of Reddit, they’ll just not have any new captures after this. Unless IA has said otherwise, it’d be very strange to wipe their archive of Reddit
