48 |FAQ
49 |52 | On May 1st, Reddit banned Pushshift from the Reddit API. 53 | Since Unddit relies on Pushshift to find removed and deleted comments and posts, any posts made after this time will appear to have zero comments on Unddit. 54 | The official announcement is available here. 55 |
56 |60 | No, I can't remove anything myself since I am not the not the one storing all the deleted comments. 61 | This is done by an external service called Pushshift.io. 62 | If you want something sensitive removed permanently you should follow the instructions here. 63 |
64 |68 | The Removeddit site stopped working a short while ago, and this site was made to partially replace it. 69 | All creddit for the software which makes this site possible goes to the original author, Jesper Wrang. 70 | Any bugs or problems are due to this site's operator. 71 | In particular, Unddit does not currently support browsing subreddits, only specific posts. 72 |
73 |77 | This page is only possible because of the amazing work done by Jason. 78 | His service Pushshift.io actively listens for new comments on Reddit and stores them in a database. 79 | Then sites like Unddit and Reveddit can fetch these comments from Pushshift. 80 | Unddit knows what comments Reddit shows (from Reddit's API) and what comments should be shown (from Pushshift's API). 81 | By comparing the comments from these 2 APIs, it can figure out what has been deleted and removed. 82 |
83 |87 | If you have enabled Strict Enhanced Tracking Protection in Firefox, this will prevent Unddit from contacting Reddit's API. 88 | Luckily there is an easy workaround. 89 | Click on the shield symbol on the left side of the address bar, and then switch off Enhanced Tracking Protection for this site. 90 | It will still be enabled for other sites. 91 |
92 |96 | If you have enabled Strict Tracking Protection in Edge, this will prevent Unddit from contacting Reddit's API. 97 | Luckily there is an easy workaround. 98 | Click on the padlock symbol on the left side of the address bar, and then switch off Tracking Protection for this site. 99 | It will still be enabled for other sites. 100 |
101 |105 | Occasionally, Pushshift (the service used by Unddit) goes offline for a while. 106 | This can result in “Could not get removed post/comments” errors on Unddit. 107 | To check its status, click this direct link to Pushshift. 108 | You should either get a message saying that “Pushshift is UP!” within the first few words of the message, or an error. 109 |
110 |114 | Not much. Removeddit was created as a temporary replacement for Ceddit, at a time when Ceddit didn't work. 115 | Jesper thought this was necessary since he used Ceddit more then Reddit itself. 116 | Months later Ceddit was fixed, but he didn't see any reason to remove what he had built. 117 | Today both sites live side by side and strive for the same goal. 118 |

- 123 | 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. 124 | If I had created Removeddit today I might had thought more about what was right here. 125 | 126 |
- 127 | Removeddit usually loads faster since it uses a slightly different algorithm for detecting removed comments. 128 | Removeddit also uses significantly less JavaScript on the page which also should make the page load faster. 129 | 130 |
- 131 | Ceddit provides user lookup while Removeddit doesn't. 132 | 133 |
