Some of that is from management being strict about following the procedures we have to make sure every step is followed or we get in trouble so even if someone seems knowledgable we have to treat them like they aren’t

as a former tech support person I think the reason why its usually like that is that most of the people who call in are people don’t know how to use a computer at least it was for the company I worked at

Why were these things allowed before?

Wtf

I don’t expect my data to be fully deleted in a centralized system either. even if it was deleted from the central server someone might have made an archive of it

and reddit is definitely guilty of this since they were bringing back peoples deleted comments and accounts

Theres a userscript that alows you to collapse the comments

why does it seem like people are much more hesitant to migrate websites than they were in the past?

especially for a website like reddit it’s not like most people use it to interact with their friends or anybody who they might deem important.

afterall reddit became popular after digg’s collapse but that’s not even the only example of this

please can youtube be next?

I really want to stop using my google account and that’s the only thing keeping me from moving away from it.
