When I “delete” a comment, all it does is replace the text with “deleted by creator”. It doesn’t even hide my username. This is different from previous behaviour where the comment was entirely removed from the public view.
I should be in control of my comment. If I want to delete it then it should be entirely removed - at least from the public view. I don’t want to make comments knowing that I’m permenantly etching my username into the stone of the thread forever with no ability to delete it. I’m highly put off from engaging now that I can’t reliably delete what I write.
Being able to undo the deletion is fine but the undo really should only last 1h or maybe 24h before the comment is properly deleted.
That is indeed good to hear.
This is just a poke reply in case you didn’t see my edit.
Aha, I see it now.
I may have a look at what they’ve said, cheers for that.
I don’t think he comments much, he’s more of a coder. He’s like /u/tom@feddit.uk, if he was actually active lol.
