Same. In the brief window when we still had the API, I deleted every thing I’ve ever posted. Every helpful comment, all the well crafted answers to technical questions. I know they are in the wayback machine somewhere but at least Reddit can’t sell them.

it's cute you think they didn't already sell them.

I used the API to scrub my comments and also did a GDPR request ... they still have plenty of shit the API didn't touch.
