I really want to cut ties with Reddit. I keep reading this stuff to keep me motivated to cut those ties.

      I nuked my 10 year old post and comment history, but haven’t been able to pull the trigger on account deletion. Soon, maybe.

        Check back in a week and make sure your posts are still deleted. I nuked mine and a bunch of old posts slowly started repopulating my profile.

          +1 on this. I am still finding my comments on Google searches, even though my profile says there aren’t any. I think it’s going to be a while before I can get them all.

      I just submitted a GDPR request on all of my alts. It takes them time and resources to do them, which costs them money even if it’s automated. Once they complete them, I’m torn between keeping the accounts and requesting it every 30 days, or just deleting all of my alts.

      Either way they’ve all been overwritten and removed already, the accounts themselves just haven’t been deleted.
