I just logged in and checked my reddit account, and all my deleted posts have come back.

    This is actually good. Mass-deleting posts and comments hurts users more than Reddit itself in the long term.

      When you strike, the goal is to inconvenience or otherwise impact the users of the service. That’s how you hurt the service provider.

      When the bus drivers strike, who does it hurt more? The public transit office? Or riders?

      When grocery store employees strike, that has direct impact on shoppers.

      When the writers guild strikes, the most affected are filmnand television viewers.

      The whole goal is to affect change by altering the behaviour of users. Otherwise, you just get scabs.

        Yeah, it’s hurts the users which hurts the company. Individual users are mildly inconvenience, but if many people delete posts Reddit will feel that cumulative pain.
