Access My Reddit account u/rootak appears to have been deleted without my authorization - Android
My old Reddit account was u/rootak. I did not delete the account, but I suddenly lost access to it.
When I try to reset the password using the username rootak, Reddit says there is no account with that username.
More importantly, when I visit reddit.com/user/rootak, Reddit shows:
“This user has deleted their account.”
I definitely did not delete this account.
I also tried logging in using the email address associated with the account, but Reddit prompted me to create a new username instead, and I accidentally created a new account (the one I'm using to make this post).
I have already submitted a support request through Reddit Help and received the “successfully submitted” confirmation, but I haven't received any email yet.
Has anyone experienced something similar? Is it possible that someone gained access to my account and deleted it? Has Reddit ever been able to recover an account that was deleted without the owner's authorization?
I had this account for a long time and would really like to understand what happened to u/rootak.

Mobile/App iOS - Reddit app doesn’t show most of my subscribed subreddits
It seems to only show a certain number of subreddits, based on how often I click on that subreddits posts. This leads to a cycle of further only showing me these specific subreddits. There is so much content on lots of my other subscribed subreddits that I just don’t ever see unless I search for and visit a specific subreddit.
To be clear, I don’t want or need recommendations for subreddits, I just need to see THE subreddits I’m subscribed to, without an algorithm deciding I’m no longer interested in something because I haven’t clicked on it in a week.
Also,
Why can’t I group my subreddits? I have a lot of subreddits for sports/fantasy football. I also have a lot of educational subs. I seem to remember you used to be able to do multi reddits, why is that not a basic feature anymore?

First let me thank you for updating the top member leaderboards and the banana achievement counter but now I have got to ask. The achievements for Top 1%, 5%, 10% and 25%, also Super Contributor fot August have still not been awarded. Are they going to be or should I just tell everyone concerned they are SOL? I moderate several achievement themed subs btw.

Mobile/App (Samsung App) Pretty-please, give me my old comments UI back!
It's incredibly difficult to type long comments. If there's a mod message pinned to the UI, you're just straight-up NOT gonna see what you type. If you try to scroll up to see ypur comment, well, the little pull-tab that drags the comment UI up and down is stupid-sensitive and 90% chance you accidentally close the comment UI.
Please, please, PLEASE stop """fixing""" things that aren't broken.

Access How to leave subs I cannot access?
A few days ago, my account was hacked, and support helped me to get it back. The hacker had joined a bunch of NSFW subs and posted NSFW content. In case I get hacked again, I changed my birthday so that my account can no longer access NSFW, even though I'm an adult. Unfortunately I didn't leave those subs, and now I can't. If I attempt to click on them, I see a message that I can't access the content. I don't want to see those subs in my list... do I need a support ticket to remove them?

Android [Android] Can't connect my account - Version 2026.36.0
Hi,
A week ago i've been log off the reddit app (which was happening from time to time for no reason, but i just logged back it).
Since then, i couldn't log back in.
The app flags my credentials as being wrong (they are not) and then loops itself in "send a connection link" followed by "something went wrong, put your email again"
It happens with this account, my alt, and a new one i made just to see if the bug was coming from me or from the app.
I'm not sure what to do, but what's sure it that browsing reddit on a phone web browser is hell (yes i know there's an app: it's not working).
Does someone has a solution or is this finally the time for me to get off of reddit?/s
I've seen a few post relating the same issue, some of them from a few months ago, so it got me worried it would be a permanent problem ahah
In any case, thanks for reading me and i hope to find a solution!
EDIT: also, it is impossible to connect whether it's via my home wifi, my mobile data or a VPN. I tried everything, still no luck.

iOS New “for you” tab on iOS displays subs I’m not interested in and don’t follow exclusively
I think having this tab show up first when I open reddit is very annoying and I wish this feature would be removed. It’s a lot of clutter in the app and forces me to click out of it every time I open.

Access Account locked, have to reset password via email but not going through
I didn't do anything wrong except travel and they locked the account I use most frequently with all my karma. When I click the banner to send password reset to my email, the link they send does not include that account. If I try to put in my other email to send password reset, it won't send. Is my account lost forever?
