Reddit didn’t immediately reply to a request for comment. According to Rathschmidt, “We’ll no longer comment on hearsay, unsubstantiated claims, or baseless accusations from The Verge. We’ll be in touch as corrections are needed.”

That's hilarious. Can't say I'm surprised by the hostility -- the articles from The Verge seem to be very favorable towards the protestors, third-party apps, etc.

How does one forget that they're dating someone? Did you guys not talk for weeks or something?

I recently came across a diary I kept while I was in high school...I can definitely believe this story.

ahhhh nooooo

Would that account for edited comments, as well? I see others are talking about comments that they edited (not deleted) being restored to a prior version.

I can see why you would think that, but that wasn't the case. It was genuinely about giving up something meaningful for Lent, strange as it was.

I had an ex that wanted to take a break for a bit because they wanted to "give me up" for Lent. They said I was the most important thing to them at the time, so it was kind of sweet and romantic...but definitely strange as well.

ooh boy

I've also noticed this 'stale' issue with the 'Hot' sorting option. Is this a bug or is this an issue with not enough people posting/interacting with posts?
