If the content will be deleted after 24 hours, what about the comments and all the discussion? I think this is not the case like Snapchat, which has been a chat/messenger app. Comments and discussion for certain contents needs to be preserve. If you are deleting the content after 24 hours for a clean interface, why not just remove the comment?

Thanks for your feedback!

Currently I have it set so bot the post and comment data is wiped from the server. If I decide to keep certain comments and discussions preserved for certain contents where do I draw the line and wouldn't that go against the goal of the site?
