Many Redditors were caught off guard by the removal of their chat and message history.

    This is such weird self-destructive behavior by Reddit.

    One oddity: I requested a complete archive on June 21 and received it on July 6, and for some reason it includes my incoming private messages going back only to Oct 2021.

    I expected it to be either complete (~2015) or chopped off at 1/1/2023 like chat. Why Oct 2021???
