      You are polluting the data set. Do it a few times with different text sources and the scrubbers won’t know what part of your comment history is good. Replace, don’t delete.

        I’m pretty sure they’ll know that the first version of each comment is almost certainly the good one. People sometimes edit a comment to add new information or fix a typo, but they almost never replace nonsense with a good comment, rather than the other way around.

        Edit: fixed typos, also replaced excerpt from Moby Dick with this post.

        Edit 2: the comments you post here are totally available for machine learning, so I don’t see much of a point in deleting my Reddit comments as long as I’m participating in Lemmy.
