I really want to cut ties with Reddit. I keep reading this stuff to keep me motivated to cut those ties.

Literally just ran Reddit Delete Suite* on my account. RIP made sure to edit every post/comment as well. Guess I will try kbin and maybe look into lemmy since they can kinda be used the same, honestly the whole fediverse needs some love UI and UX wise. I have seen several posts about people dev apps for both, so looking forward to what the future holds for sure.

*Shout out to the other two comments with the links thanks

i'd love to nuke the comments on my 15 year old account. F reddit.

Yeah I'll get to my PC here in a minute and come back to this comment, and edit this one with the link. https://github.com/j0be/PowerDeleteSuite

I just added the JavaScript to my hotbar and then went to my reddit and ran it on the page and waited for it to start. Super simple and has filters as well man. Depending on how many comments/posts you have, could take quite a while I only had a few thousand that needed to be edited. So it took around 8-10min. 16 yr account though lol RIP Reddit losing a lot there!

Just so you're aware, if you have more than 1000 comments/posts in your history they won't be indexed and immediately available. I'm assuming it takes time to propagate. So don't delete your account straight after, keep running it every other day until entries stop appearing.
