I know this is a thing on Reddit where idiot kids will circumvent ToS and subreddit rules by deleting their commment because it remains as a notification, while removing any reportable trace, but that’s not how Lenny works. Deleted comments show that a person commented but does not show they comment.

So, why is this so common?

(If this isn’t the place to ask, my apologies. I just don’t know what the right pace to ask it is if this isn’t the one. Also. I’m blocking all the clowns that think it’s funny to comment and delete.)

    Sometimes mine spins and then posts twice. Sometimes i realize that I’m replying to the wrong comment. Sometimes the typos and autocowrongs are so bad that it’s unintelligible. Sometimes the written words don’t come across the way i intended. 🤷

      I get that. But I think the frequency of it lends to it being more than just that. It happens a lot.

        Do let me be a bit provocative here: why did you pose the question if you don’t accept the answers?

          How have I not accepted the answers? There’s been plenty of good responses, and some kids that think they’re funny. What in your opinion, have I not accepted.

            I read under 3 replies, that you don’t think they explain the frequency.
            But they’re the answers given by most and also the one that I would give. Maybe they do explain the frequency. Maybe our communities here are just more full of self doubt or self reflection than other websites.
