Hey, I might make a new post for this but I'm skimming current ones. I want to point out that reddits restoring deleted comments, so it's possible they're doing the same with edited ones. I used redact to delete everything a few days ago and realized my entire history was restored. I'm petty enough that I'm editing my top comments and deleting manually so hopefully it isn't noticed right away. I'm glad I didn't delete my account yet.

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:

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

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.

Yeah either way I not touching my reddit account till 1st of July to delete it, but even if this all goes somewhat in favour of reddit, just the fact that they are restoring deleted and edited content might put them into some trouble related the GDPR laws.
For sure, I wanted to save mine for the 1st too, but it's coming up quick and I want to make some noise in the meantime! I just made a post and got a reply that we should be able to request reddit to delete the content for us. I think I'll save that for the 1st
