Firmly agree. If I notice a trend on posts being deleted after posting, I just block the user so I don’t see the new posts. Nothing is more annoying then putting a bunch of effort responding to someones question, especially tech related, just for them to nuke the post later on so it was all for nothing.

Thankfully though, it’s few and far between on the communities that I usually look at, so I have not noticed it a whole lot.

just a quick question, any reason on why they do it...?
I find it counterintuitive
I think it’s trying to minimize their digital footprint/reduce the amount of LLMs that will ingest their post.
That’s surely one reason. Another would be collecting data to create profiles to make advertising and political manipulation even more effective.
