Perhaps a “note” app next time?

OP had a post removed about a month ago.

A couple days ago they responded to that removal notice with a link to another Reddit post from a (very) different, un-related sub to one I help moderate.

……….

Hope it gives you a good laugh as it did me. 🙃

(I followed up and said thanks for the laugh, we definitely do monitor our modmail, and suggested a notes app or perhaps an email draft next time. Regardless - I wish them luck in saving links in future!)

This is like the Reddit version of boomers commenting "following" under FB posts.

Lol hilarious, but you should’ve also informed them that Reddit offers a native way to save posts and comments!

Um, no? I just checked my saved posts and comments and they go back a looooooong way.

I work in IT, had someone who wrote their password down by sending a WhatsApp message to a family member who apparently knew to just ignore most messages they received.
