heh I wonder if all the "old" content getting messed with and/or removed is causing issues with the algorithm/scraper.
For unauthorized scrapers? Definitely
For paid API usage? That tends to not be public for obvious reasons but, allegedly, people have, allegedly, done tests and found "deleted" content in the results.
That's why I edited everything before deleting it.
I did this too but reddit reverted everything back to how it was and undeleted my account
Looks like me too. Time for a cease and desist.
