My reddit comments keep coming back (discuss.tchncs.de)

After the blackout I deleted all my posts and comments on reddit using the PowerDeleteSuite, and since then I've come back weekly to find comments existing on my account. I've been deleting them by hand now that the API is unusable. Does reddit pull these out of a backup? Do I just now see all of my comments? What's the reason these comments keep showing up?

Are you sure they were reverted. If you used the original Power Delete Suite it was not reacting to the current 5-second-per-edit limit. And so it would look like stuff being reverted.

Many of the forks implemented some sleep timing to ensure all comments stay edited.

I used a forked version and said goodbye like the dolphins.

Thousands of comments (and a couple of days later) edit on a 4-pass cycle to ensure Reddit hadn’t implemented some kind of revision depth - and they’re all still edited.

I used the fork with the delay but I recognized the same comment showing up again and again, so I am pretty sure at least some were reverted.
