You can make this a macro and trigger it with just a hot key.

Select Start Recording in the Macro menu. Open the search dialog, in the “Find what” field just type three characters: “:.*” (that’s a colon, period, and asterisk). In the “Replace with” field enter just a single colon. Switch search mode to “Regular expression”, and make sure “matches new line” box is not checked, and hit Replace All.

Now Stop Recording in the Macro menu, and then Save Current Recorded Macro. Give it a name and optionally a hot key, and note you can run it from the Macro menu or the hot key.

I want to be excited about this, but I just don’t believe I’ll actually be able to get one for retail price. For much of the RP4 lifecycle they prioritized corporate sales, and regular consumers were out of luck. I don’t have a lot of faith in them right now.

I’ve been a Prime member from the very beginning, but I’m seriously reevaluating whether I should drop it. The value proposition is decreasing for me. At $99 I thought it was pretty good considering the perks like video and music. But then they crippled Prime Music a few months back so it’s a shadow of what it once was (pushing you to subscribe to Unlimited). Now Prime Video is getting ads. Those “extras” are becoming less compelling. So I’m paying $140 annually for just free shipping? Hmmm, these numbers don’t add up anymore.

Okay, now that’s a plausible explanation. Some of those subs may have been private and coming back online over several days. Thanks for the insight.

If it isn’t on purpose, then they have a bug that is restoring comments. My main account is 18 years old. Cake Day is December 2005. I deleted it all, and then I checked from multiple devices to ensure when I logged in it was all gone, and it was. Until it wasn’t. I had about 100 random comments from 2013 to 2022 come back. So I manually deleted them all… again. And then a few days later, suddenly different comments are back. I must have repeated this deletion process 4-5 times. Each time, Reddit’s interface (not a third party script or app) showed me everything was gone… until it wasn’t.

They have some automated recovery going on whether they want to admit it or not.
