FAQ

Q: I posted some sensitive information on Reddit. Can you delete this from your
page?

No, I can't remove anything myself since I am not the not the one storing all
the deleted comments. This is done by an external service called Pushshift.io.
If you want something sensitive removed permanently you should follow the
instructions here.

Q: Didn't this site used to be named Removeddit?

The Removeddit site stopped working a short while ago, and this site was made to
partially replace it. All creddit for the software which makes this site
possible goes to the original author, Jesper Wrang. Any bugs or problems are due
to this site's operator. In particular, Unddit does not currently support
browsing subreddits, only specific posts.

Q: How does it work?

This page is only possible because of the amazing work done by Jason. His
service Pushshift.io actively listens for new comments on Reddit and stores them
in a database. Then sites like Unddit and Reveddit can fetch these comments from
Pushshift. Unddit knows what comments Reddit shows (from Reddit's API) and what
comments should be shown (from Pushshift's API). By comparing the comments from
these 2 APIs, it can figure out what has been deleted and removed.

Q: Why doesn't it work in Firefox?

If you have enabled Strict Enhanced Tracking Protection in Firefox, this will
prevent Unddit from contacting Reddit's API. Luckily there is an easy
workaround. Click on the shield symbol on the left side of the address bar, and
then switch off Enhanced Tracking Protection for this site. It will still be
enabled for other sites.

Q: Why doesn't it work in Edge?

If you have enabled Strict Tracking Protection in Edge, this will prevent Unddit
from contacting Reddit's API. Luckily there is an easy workaround. Click on the
padlock symbol on the left side of the address bar, and then switch off Tracking
Protection for this site. It will still be enabled for other sites.

Q: Is Unddit/Pushshift down?

Occasionally, Pushshift (the service used by Unddit) goes offline for a while.
This can result in “Could not get removed post/comments” errors on Unddit. To
check its status, click this direct link to Pushshift. You should either get a
message saying that “Pushshift is UP!” within the first few words of the
message, or an error.

Q: What's the difference between Ceddit and Removeddit/Unddit?

Not much. Removeddit was created as a temporary replacement for Ceddit, at a
time when Ceddit didn't work. Jesper thought this was necessary since he used
Ceddit more then Reddit itself. Months later Ceddit was fixed, but he didn't see
any reason to remove what he had built. Today both sites live side by side and
strive for the same goal.

There are some minor differences in them though:
 * Ceddit respects user-made deletions while Removeddit does not. This decision
   was made early on and I feel like it's too late to change now. If I had
   created Removeddit today I might had thought more about what was right here.
 * Removeddit usually loads faster since it uses a slightly different algorithm
   for detecting removed comments. Removeddit also uses significantly less
   JavaScript on the page which also should make the page load faster.
 * Ceddit provides user lookup while Removeddit doesn't.
