    I spent about a week working a few hours a day deleting all of my posts and comments. Couldn’t be bothered to spend the $20 for shreddit to do it for me so I did it myself.

    THEN I deleted my account. I “deleted” my Facebook account like 8 years ago but then ended up making a “new” one last year to use the marketplace. Didn’t want to use my new email address so I used my old one because I treat it like a burner email nowadays. Old email address ended up being the same one I used when I originally created my Facebook account and lo and behold Facebook never deleted anything. So I don’t trust companies when they say they will delete everything.

    I’m not even sure Reddit actually deleted all my posts and comments but I feel better about it.
