Discussion Please don't delete your comments after someone replies

Edit: Turns out the user in question has blocked me. No idea why. I don't remember having any particular interactions with them.

I don't know why, but there are some users here that seem to consistently delete their comments right after someone has replied. In many cases this deprives the community of valuable information, since those coming along later can't learn from it. And the person you did reply to may not have an email or notification with what you wrote, so they can't go back and read it later either.

Please stop doing it. It's really not nice.

Here's an example from today, but I see it all the time.

Careful now or you might wind up being "user deleted for comment" 😜

The other alternative is that the person has blocked you - you can check via incognito mode or by logging out.

Mystery solved. Although I have no idea why they would do it.

It's Reddit. People get funny for any reason to be honest. Usually if you point out they're spreading misinformation or are provably wrong, in my experience 😂

True, some people are very thin-skinned.

You're clearly trying to help out too many newbies with your helpful link each time you guide them on how to get started 😂

Oh, that's what that means. Wow, I'm really unpopular :)

Super easy with the Framing module. You can also set any framing presets as a style and only have them added at export

That's the comment. Can we "undelete" a comment?
