They are going into their database and restoring the original comments. No just un-deleting them. This is exactly why I left my account active.

they don't retain comment edit history. they literally don't possess this capability-- it's a GDPR requirement.

it's possible that some of your comments were missed when you tried to sanitize them. i ran into this issue myself and had to re-run the sanitization script a few times to get all of my comments.

I'm having this issue as well, but I think it's just comments from subs that aren't private anymore.
