This link was a really intriguing post entitled, “How did you get your job?” I was planning to read through some more of the comments (it got really popular quickly), but the author deleted the post for some reason!

    Totally agreed! This is one of the major strengths of Reddit: The removal of a post doesn’t lead to the destruction of the entire comment history. This is also something I don’t like about YouTube. If a video disappears, it takes the comment history with it.

      Dang. There’s gotta be some way around this… Hmm… I suppose a fork would be needed, though, as an archival tool would probably be too much…
