I’m not sure if it’s a coincidence, but I raised a case with the ICO in the UK, and today they got back to me asking for all my communication with Reddit. Also today - after a month of silence - Reddit also emailed me with this

If you’re in the UK and had been affected by posts being restored, I’d recommend contacting the ICO. It takes less than 5 minutes

Yeah... My comments which were restored were deleted for several days before they started reappearing. That doesn't sound like a flaw on the scripts, but a flaw on how reddit handles bulk comment deletion.

Mine weren’t bulk deleted (I manually deleted weekly) and still respawned weeks after deletion.
