How I feel when I type out a long and detailed reply to someone's comment only to find they've deleted the comment before I can hit send

Yeah it’s happened to me a few times

Also another few times I did have long lengthy arguments with idiots on reddit in the past and ended up deleting the draft because I lost the mental will to argue with the idiot while writing thr lengthy comment

Second only to someone post facto editing their comment to make you look bad.

A lot of people also added “edit:typo” to their comments on reddit when they edited them to male it look like they had a legitimate reason to have the comment be edited

Your comment is altogether too specific for me to write a natural sounding post facto edit that makes you look silly and doesn’t involve ableist language. You win this round…

Or the flip side, you write out a long detailed reply and right before you submit it you decide you don’t care enough about it and delete your draft.
