News and Discussions about Reddit

Welcome to !reddit. This is a community for all news and discussions about Reddit.

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rules


Rule 1- No brigading.

**You may not encourage brigading any communities or subreddits in any way. **

YSKs are about self-improvement on how to do things.



Rule 2- No illegal or NSFW or gore content.

**No illegal or NSFW or gore content. **



Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.



Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding META posts.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.



Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.

If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



:::spoiler Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

MODERATORS
 

As a PSA, remember that the API changes don't only impact third party apps & accessibility tools, but also your ability to bulk delete or modify your Reddit history. If you intend to delete or modify your previous Reddit posts, be sure to run a tool like Power Delete Suite today before the shut down.

Also remember that as Subreddits went from private to public, there may have been posts and comments you attempted to delete but couldn't until they went public again. So if you ran these tools, you might want to run it again to make sure you got everything.

I was on Reddit for 12 years and cleared out the old posts and comments today. It was weird seeing my profile with zero comments or posts. Hello, Lemmy!

I was nearly up to 13 years I was hoping to take all my comments with me but I didn't get my download link yet. I'll just have to bulk erase it today. So much for all our past wasted and enjoyed time.

Edit: I used Power Delete Suite and got my comments saved. I don't know how to read them all yet but they aren't on Reddit anymore.

I made a backup with this free tool: https://github.com/j0be/PowerDeleteSuite

I then edited/delete all of my posts

Oldest account is 15, the one with this handle turns 12... tomorrow. It dies tonight though.

What tool did you use? I tried Power Delete, but after a while all my posts come back.

Try using this fork https://www.github.com/pkolyvas/PowerDeleteSuite and editing them instead of deleting them. This fork waits 5 seconds between edits so it takes forever, but so far my posts have stayed edited.

I used power delete suite. (https://github.com/j0be/PowerDeleteSuite)

It might stop working when the API is shut down, so I made sure to run it last month. I'm not sure if it will still work.
