I took part in the Reddit blackout a month ago, and accessed Reddit through Apollo. After the blackout I looked at Reddit a handful of times and then let my association with Reddit die with Apollo.

I haven’t been there since, but now I feel as though I should have deleted my account of 7 years, that way everything I ever contributed will be gone.

However, to accomplish this as you all know I should delete all my posts first and edit all comments. I was wondering what people used to do this. I want everything to read “Edit: moved to Lemmy”.

I’m sure others migrating here have the same question. Thanks.

    Does shreddit still work now that the APIs are turned off? I’d’ve thought the mass-deletion apps would be the first thing they turned the spigot off for.

      This script works as an app attached to your user, and rate limits itself so it doesn’t break - that’s why it takes so long, though. Took me 25 hours to shred a 6 year old account.
