Me too, I did most of my redditing on the phone. So the only redditing I do these days is when on desktop looking for various hardware recommendations, cause unfortunately I don’t know how to search lemmy that well
for now Reddit is still a font of information and advice from knowledgeable people.
That too is changing. For the last few months, most technical posts I search on reddit are starting to get filled with [Deleted] for all the actual answers as reddit’s current push to ban left leaning users has removed all the people who actually were interested in giving answers in the past.
I mean yeah, there was always a few [Deleted]s in every old thread but in the last half year it has become the majority of them.
On Reddit, if a comment is removed by admin or moderators, it displays [removed]. [deleted] means the user themself did it. I’d imagine what you’re seeing is people like myself, who used scripts to delete all of our comments from the site.
