tl;dr Reddit accidentally banned my fandom-heavy Reddit account, and when they unbanned it, all of my content was gone.

My Reddit account is over 5 years old. I am generally not a troublemaker, and I do not break rules. I have never been banned from a subreddit, and I think I have only ever had one comment removed, and it was on a sub that has notoriously strict mods. I do not brigade or use a second account to vote on comments or posts. I do not post abuse towards other people, I don't even post about controversial topics that tend to attract trolls/bots/angry replies.

Awhile back, I noticed that NONE of my comments were receiving any votes or replies. I thought that was a little odd, so I opened my profile in an incognito window, and sure enough. My account was suspended or banned or whatever it is they do.

I genuinely had no idea why, so I googled and found out that you can appeal. I did so, and in less than 12 hours, I received a message that my account had erroneously been caught up in spam filters, and so they reinstated it.

However, they did not restore any of my posts or comments. 5+ years of content, heavy in fandom subs, totally gone. It honestly really messed with me. I can't believe all that effort I put into all that content has just vanished. It's genuinely sickening. Some of it was stuff that other people enjoyed or found useful, and it's just been wiped out.

The only silver lining here is that I have been shown how fleeting all this shit is, and how ultimately I have little to no control over it, because it can all be gone in the blink of an eye, for no reason. So I'm spending less time there, because why bother if it can all vanish when I didn't even do anything wrong?
