Sometimes I think this whole process of deleting content from Reddit in protest hasn't really worked out for everyone...

Yeah, I'm sure they're able to get older snapshots with the data, so my motivation was never to prevent training - which I couldn't care less tbh - but it was exactly to diminish Reddit's perceived value.
Before the controversy, the platform was even more useful than Google to me, and I think this puts the whole community in a bad situation. They chose profit over openness, and like other social networks, started gatekeeping the content we generated. It won't surprise me if the platform, like many before, starts requiring signing in to read content in the near future.
If I could just dump the content I created, in context, somewhere open and not controlled by Reddit, I would have done it instead of deleting it. The internet archive, search engine indexers, and other private crawlers have a lot of this "deleted" data, so I think worrying about AI training is a waste of time after the data is made public.
