Sure, sorry for not linking it earlier. I used this
https://github.com/pkolyvas/PowerDeleteSuite
I just tried it for myself, it only made 63 requests to delete 12 comments. These were in my profile, they're ones that have reappeared after being deleted previously.
Meanwhile, if I look in my GDPR files up to where I've got so far with shreddit, the comments are still there, completely untouched.
Maybe you don't have too many comments, so you're within the 1,000 comment limit across your different lists? It's impossible to be sure without having the direct links, either from a GDPR request or the Pushshift backup.
No idea, to be honest! Could it be because I only edited my comments?
I doubt it, they're still looking at the same comment lists.
You could always do a GDPR or CCPA request anyway. Then you should be able to check, even if it comes through after 1 July.
Alright, thanks! I guess I'll do that, and the other thing you mentioned, so I can edit everything to the last comment just out of spite lol
Thanks. That's the same version I used. :( Glad it worked for you... I'll try again tomorrow and see how it goes. My old comments are still hanging out there.
