A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I overwrote then deleted all of my comments a few weeks ago—they were all back in their original form last week. I’ve since run the process again and already old comments are starting to reappear
The best part about this is that the more they do this, the more it costs them. Every action, especially disk transactions, cost them money. Just log in every day, run your deletion utility, and cost them a couple bucks more for being pricks about it.
That's peanuts for them.
If you want to hurt them, make the platform unusable. Post real looking, but garbage comments in a semi automated way (random comments every few seconds, while you're scrolling through. Vote randomly, downvote everything on /new...
Exactly this. Post blank photos, etc. Doing things like posting pictures of John Oliver just changes the conversation but still generates the traffic.
Be boring. Up vote garbage, and force them to pay mods like other platforms do.
I'm actually surprised digg didn't try to get back into it again
