Shreddit and PowerDeleteSuite were last updated years ago. I’ve used redact.dev which can also edit your comments to random strings before deleting them as “deleting” on Reddit doesn’t delete anything but only hides it from public view.
I’m now also doing a manual pass by using a Google search for
“mbirth”(incl. quotes!) followed bysite:reddit.comand a date filter for everything of like 10 years ago and then manually delete all the comments the deletion tools didn’t catch via the API.OP posted the out of date Shreddit. There’s a new one written in Rust that was updated just last month.
Fixed!
Powerdeletesuite also lets you overwrite the comments though not with random strings. I overwrote them all with "fuck /u/spez"
