When the Reddit is Fun app shut down due to the API thing, I spent days deleting hundreds of comments/posts that I had made.

May Reddit die

You can also use the revanced patcher on the official Reddit app to remove all ads and suggested posts etc.

Explanation? I'm not getting it

Rich people will say, money doesn't matter. But they haven't experienced actually not having it. It's ironic.
Attractive people say, looks don't matter, but they've always had good looks. It's ironic.
The joke plays on the way deleted comments on Reddit show up as removed by deleted user, sounding similar to the earlier ironies: Deleted says deleted. Since that last is effectively meaningless, and entirely different underneath from the reaction-to-judgement underlying the first two, it's also humour from the non-sequitur.
So it turns a frustration with rich and attractive people telling us not to worry about money and looks, into a surreal joke comparing the pattern to deleted Reddit comments.

I took it to mean that if you weren't rich or beautiful, you would be censored. The censorship being a way to show that you weren't important.
Of course, that wouldn't actually be the case in real life, though it may feel that way. If we were looking through the lens from a big data company, it would be true that we're just one data point in a sea of data points, but they rely on the sea and the sea is made of me's.

We're both in the same boat here, and these other ppl being unhelpful makes me sad

Lots of people have difficulty putting into words why something is funny. It's usually not something they can easily put into words unless they have a background in comedy. I'm not overly bothered by it.

On reddit, when A user account is deleted, their posts will just say "removed" and the account "deleted", hence the association of the two.

Reddit for me is now:
lol no
That's 100% a VPN being used. Some countries get around it. You need to shop around.
It is, you're right and I forgot to mention it. But I consider it a good thing for my sanity.
Or use a different frontend like eddrit
Or a public wifi being used. For some reason, Reddit blocks that as well.
What did you do? Use a VPN or Tor?
You'll want something like lib redirect or a reddit viewer from fdroid, I recommend radreader.
