Is there any way of downloading / exporting my comments? I know it sounds daft, but there's some of my early posts about personal stuff that I'd like to keep. I couldn't find anything in my account settings (first time I'd logged on to the actual website in a long time ha)
You can request your data, but it can take 30 days, so that's not very viable: https://www.reddit.com/settings/data-request
Power Delete Suite automates the exporting of your data, but from what I can tell it just exports your comments into a spreadsheet
Cool thanks. I'd be ok with waiting for the response before deleting my account. I might give that other option a go as well. Once I've got all my comments in a spreadsheet I might then realise how pointless keeping them is!
@charlytune @LinkOpensChest_wav I looked through my past comments on Reddit and I think only one was of any use. Frankly I mostly lurked, so they can have those comments. I'll delete my account June 30th (or before if spez tries damage control again) and just enjoy the fediverse.
I know I saw some programs mentioned in various threads that will download your posts and comments into JSON and .csv files
