Hello everyone.
With the API changes, I, too, was planing to delete my reddit account. I am still intending on doing so, but I wanted to purge all my content (mostly comments, some even helpful) from that site, before i finally pull the plug on my account.
I used PowerDeleteSuite to edit and delete all my comments, and it successfully edited and deleted about 2000 comments I made.
Visiting my reddit profile (either logged in or from an incognito browser tab, old reddit as well as new) shows that I don’t have any comments or posts.
However, I decided to have reddit provide me with all my stored data, as per the GDPR. This data reveals that I made about 6000 comments over the years, and about 2000 of those comments reflect the edits I made using PDS. But the remaining 4000 comments are still unedited and can be reached via the url in the GDPR spreadsheet.
Is there a tool that allows mass editing all my comments based on a spreadsheet containing URLs to the comments, as tools like PDS are unable to find the remaining ~4000 comments?
Just wondering, but why don’t you ask reddit to delete your data, according to the GDPR you have a right to that?
