As a PSA, remember that the API changes don’t only impact third party apps & accessibility tools, but also your ability to bulk delete or modify your Reddit history. If you intend to delete or modify your previous Reddit posts, be sure to run a tool like Power Delete Suite today before the shut down.

Also remember that as Subreddits went from private to public, there may have been posts and comments you attempted to delete but couldn’t until they went public again. So if you ran these tools, you might want to run it again to make sure you got everything.

    Most of the content will be re-created elsewhere over time. The alternative to deletion is allowing Reddit to serve ads and make money off of your answers that were intended to help people.

    My 10-year account is fully deleted and gone, including some of my answers to obscure technical questions.
