Why are people deleting their comments? Should I be doing this as well?
I've been seeing a lot of missing comments lately, with the "deleted by author" note.

But for real, I recently noticed an account that deleted all of his comments shortly after responding to me. His comment was remarkably incoherent -- more incoherent than even ChatGPT normally is.

I just asked a similar question in meta. People can do as they please but we also have the ability to post as anon and that doesn't remove helpful context and answers to questions.
