Over 17 years, my cake day is December 2005. I deleted all my posts and comments and came to Lemmy. I haven’t deleted the account yet simply because I still pop in to read stuff occasionally, but I’m done posting over there.

Okay, now that’s a plausible explanation. Some of those subs may have been private and coming back online over several days. Thanks for the insight.
If it isn’t on purpose, then they have a bug that is restoring comments. My main account is 18 years old. Cake Day is December 2005. I deleted it all, and then I checked from multiple devices to ensure when I logged in it was all gone, and it was. Until it wasn’t. I had about 100 random comments from 2013 to 2022 come back. So I manually deleted them all… again. And then a few days later, suddenly different comments are back. I must have repeated this deletion process 4-5 times. Each time, Reddit’s interface (not a third party script or app) showed me everything was gone… until it wasn’t.
They have some automated recovery going on whether they want to admit it or not.
This was the most baffling statement. They literally just took control of some subreddits weeks ago. Do they really lack any self awareness?
