Over the past few weeks, many Reddit users have begun to report the disappearance of their old personal messages accumulated over the years, writes Mashable resource. In response to a complaint from one of the forum members, the Reddit administrator explained that the company “ports legacy chats to new platforms and unfortunately only 2023 data is copied.”

The administrator also reported that there is an opportunity to access their old chats. To do this, you need to make a request for data on this address when logging into your Reddit account. In addition, incoming messages until 2023 can be accessed using the old version of Reddit.
It appears that many users did not pay attention to the social media platform administration’s announcement in June that the platform was moving to a new chat architecture and that deleting old messages would ensure “smooth and fast transition”. The transition decision took effect on June 30, but many users noticed the disappearance of the archives only a few days later.
Along with the recent changes to the API access policy and removal of archived chats, Reddit management has made another decision that has caused a backlash from users. On Friday, the Reddit platform announced that it would be phasing out the rewards system, and following September 12, all virtual Reddit Coins and rewards that users have will disappear. Although the monthly coin giveaway and premium rewards will end following this date, the Reddit Premium subscription will continue, as will the perks it provides, including the ability to view content without ads.
