unddit alternative

unddit restored removed Reddit comments by comparing Pushshift's copy with Reddit. On Oct 17, 2026 unddit.com did not resolve, and the last change to its code, in 2023, added a notice about Reddit's ban of Pushshift. ChatterAPI reads live Reddit only, so it cannot show text that moderators removed or authors deleted. That text survives only in archives that captured a comment before it was removed, such as Arctic Shift and the Pushshift dumps.

What unddit is

  • Its README describes unddit as a site that restores removed comments when you swap re for un in a Reddit URL. source
  • It compared Pushshift's copy of a thread with what Reddit's API returned. source
  • The README says Jesper Wrang built the front end and that it first ran at removeddit.com. source
  • The repository's last commit, on May 1, 2023, added a dialog about Reddit's ban of Pushshift. source
  • On Oct 17, 2026, unddit.com and its www and camas subdomains did not resolve. source

When unddit is the better choice

  • You are reading its open source code to learn how removal comparison worked.
  • You run your own copy against an archive you already have.

When ChatterAPI fits

  • You want a user's current public comments and posts, which our free Reddit comment history viewer shows without an account.
  • You want to search live Reddit posts and comments by keyword, subreddit and time.
  • You want to catch new posts and comments as they appear, by polling search on a schedule from code or an AI agent.
  • You also need X data with the same key.

What to use now that unddit doesn't work

  1. For removed or deleted text, use an archive that captured it before removal. We can't recover it.
  2. For what a user has public right now, call the user comments endpoint with their username.
  3. For new content, search comments by keyword on a schedule and store what you find. Anything you saved stays with you if it is removed later.

Questions

Is unddit down?
Yes. On Oct 17, 2026 unddit.com did not resolve at all. The last change to its code, in May 2023, added a notice about Reddit's ban of Pushshift, the data source it relied on.
Can ChatterAPI show removed Reddit comments?
No. It reads live Reddit. Since Reddit's change around September 2025, comments a moderator removes no longer appear in the author's public history either, so we can't show removed or deleted text.
Where can I find a deleted Reddit comment?
Only in an archive that saved it before it was deleted, such as Arctic Shift or the Pushshift data dumps. How well they cover recent content varies.
Is there a working replacement for unddit?
reveddit is still online, and its browser extension can tell you when your own content is removed. For other people's removed comments, archives are the only source.
