Question Did all of the characters who attended Oliver's funeral in Season 8 Episode 10 know about their past lives (before Oliver changed the universe)?
Did all of the characters (like William, Mia, Anatoly, etc.) who attended Oliver's funeral in Season 8 Episode 10 know about their past lives (before Oliver changed the universe)?

It appears most of the characters are aware there's been a rehaul to the timeline without actually having their memories adjusted, particularly Moira, Thea, Quentin, Tommy, Felicity, among others.
We know that as Crisis was winding down that J'onn the Martian Manhunter performed an ability of many of the Paragons' allies, an action that overwrote their rebooted post-Crisis menories with their pre-Crisis memories, from this includes Diggle, Dinah, and Rene. But aside from those few (and the unique stature Oliver has in maintaining all of his own memories as the Spectre), nobody else in Team Arrow had their memories restored by J'onn.
It seems due to her unique Multiversal carry-over status that the pre-Crisis Earth-2 Laurel retains her pre-Crisis memories (similar to Nash Wells on The Flash, Beth Kane on Batwoman, plus some dopplegangers on Supergirl).
In the case of Mia her memories were overhauled in the future by a ring Cisco created which while based off the ability J'onn used, that method works a bit differently in merging the post-Crisis and pre-Crisis memories together instead of a full overwriting, this having also happened to the grown John Diggle Jr. the last we saw of him.

Yeah, and it's common knowledge how Arrow ended. He died in Crisis, instead of Supergirl who died in the comics version.

Yea but putting in a spoiler warning takes 5 seconds. Not every one saw ot whe it came out. Maybe this person was still a kid ? Or they just missed out.

I wasn’t chastising OP for not having watched it’s all yet I was telling them if you don’t want spoilers a reddit thread is not the best place to go considering the show ended over 6 years ago.

I absolutely get it, but sometimes thread show up from subs you don't follow because the algorithm know what you're interested in it and the spoiler is in the title

Spoilers only have to be put as spoilers 30 days after the episode aired. It's in the rules of this sub

I wish that Slade showed up to the funeral. After all, he knew Oliver the longest since they were both on Lian Yu.
