    bullshit framing. this isnt reddit defending privacy. it’s protecting the user data they want to sell to AI trainers. while killing the archival record.

    Archived versions of Reddit pages haven’t worked for a while now. You can find snapshots listed, but when you try to load them, the comment section is empty.

    Whatever, many things found on reddit are stale and most tech-related info is deprecated. Always super useless when it shows up as a search hit.
