I just ran Power Delete Suite on all of my comments and self posts, stating they have been removed in protest.
On July 1st, I am deleting every comment and post, then closing my account. Reddit was fun while it lasted.
The fediverse is still raw, but I see massive protentional here, and I am ready for this journey with all of you.
Yeah. I deleted my content and account. Next day content was back, but my account was still gone.
Do you live in Europe? Perhaps you can request the Right to be Forgotten (GDPR). If a lot of European do it, that might pressure Reddit.
You can also make a request under the CCPA if you live in California and the DPA if you live in the UK.
Unfortunately no enforceable measures that I am aware of for residence of New England.
Not sure whether that helps. If there is no critical mass they can just say “F… you”.
I think they would just use the normal account deletion procedure, so all comments would still be there just with a “deleted user” user
sadly the best way I can think of is just doing it a little at a time manual edits/deletes. or restricting it to be only like 300-400 posts at a time. but honestly reddit is probally just rolling back everything within x time because I was also re-logged in after logging out on all devices the night prior, which tells me they likely ran a database rollback and then migrated new data over the old data.
