In the last few weeks, I frequently see some empty comments. It’s just the username and no text beneath.

Is there a deeper reason behind this? Do people nowadays strip away the text instead of deleting a comment? Or did some script surface that ‘makes the internet forget’? First I thought people did this before deleting a comment and the deletion just didn’t get federated. But I scrolled through some older posts and they also still have comments like that, so that can’t be it. Right?

Can anyone educate me?

    They’re like the dragon scroll, they reflect as much of your true destiny as you’re able to see in yourself.
