Same experience here with 2k+ comments processed, but I did use one of the forks that waits 5s between each edit/deletion to avoid getting rate-limited

Alternative to using a forked version is to use inbuilt browser dev tools to throttle the connection within a tab. In firefox eg: ctrl+shift+c -> network->throttling. That way it can't flood the server with requests.

BTW: where did you find the fork?

That sounds useful, built-in stuff is nice, although I don't know for what else I could use it lol anyway I didn't know about that, so thanks!

In the early days after people started noticing that some comments weren't being edited/deleted I stumbled upon a comment, don't remember whether on here on on Reddit, that suggested using this fork.
