Pretty much the question, Does it have better help than Reddit?

    I think they meant the users that deleted/edited their comments/posts last month before migrating here / elsewhere

      I see. A tragedy, but understandable. Hopefully the most important things have been saved via Wayback Machine or similar.

        I see the point but I’d personally rather start asking the questions, whose answers have been deleted off of Reddit, here to build up a new (hopefully fireproof) Library of Alexandria.

        For me personally for mundane-ish questions, searching the web-archive for a snapshot that still had the answer is too much a hassle and not as future proof. If a snapshot of that specific question even existed in the first place.

        I do have to say that I’ve seen such replaced comments at least 3 times in the wild by now which is way more than I expected at first. It’s a loss for sure but I do have to appreciate that some people actually followed through to such an extend.

        A lot is probably still out there, but not from a simple search since those hits were based on the original Reddit page and some of that is now gone.
