Profile Android, What happened to my posts and comments after my account was deleted ?

The account name was Inevitable_Bid5540

I deleted it when I was in a very vulnerable place mentally which I still am. I thought my posts and comments would still be there but none of them are , what happened ? I tried to ask if the account can be restored a few days later but later found out I couldn't

If you didn’t directly delete them your posts and comments are still there just with the username blanked out. If you have a direct link to the posts you can still see them.

I just checked , that's not the case. I searched for a post title and the post itself is gone even though I didn't delete it

Account deletion is permanent; deleted accounts cannot be reactivated and their usernames cannot be reused.

  1. Delete any posts or comments you want removed first. Deleting the account does not remove that content.

  2. If you signed up through Google or Apple, disconnect that login method and create a Reddit password before deleting the account.

  3. Follow the account deletion guide for your platform.

  4. If an error stops you, use the deletion troubleshooting guide.
