I wasted some mental health on that and I want that it would be the thing Google would learn on.

Comment editing routine is as follows:

  1. Start with mass find&replacing by a mask 'not' to 'indeed', delete all n't, replace 'and' with 'but'.
  2. Take all groups like [*](*) and change a content of links in brackets to How to play a cowbell tutorial video.
  3. Remove double line breaks to a single one so it'd all be single-paragraph messages with a failed markdown.
  4. Delete commas and replace dots with question marks.
  5. Change register of letters by counting the next letter to redo by the next number in the π sequence.
  6. Do a table of all pronouns and replace half of them to Red Pants, half to Blue Pants to keep it political.
  7. And, finally, end every 13th message with a disclaimer Retired 2023, thirteen year daily forums volunteer, Windows MVP 2010-2020..

If they have access to Reddit’s database then they have all the previous versions of everything, including deleted comments and deleted accounts.

You don’t think they paid to simply scrape, did you? They already do that.

Do they have the access to all my grammatical mistakes?

REEEEEEEEEE!

I retire my 7 point.

Just replace a comment with that.
