I probably wouldn‘t remove the account itself
Otherwise you can‘t remove them again when they get restored by the admins

I took the picture on my Canon 60D camera its kit lens (18-135mm, f3.5-5.6)
It was attached to a SkyWatcher Staradventurer 2i

In total I took 139 lights with an exposure time of 30s at ISO 300 and around 30 bias, flats, and dark flats each

All images were stacked in DeepSkyStacker and then edited in Photoshop

I adjusted the levels so that the nebula became visible, after which I adjusted the color a bit.
I then removed the stars using StarNetv2 to be able to edit the stars and the nebula seperately.
I cut out the nebula so I could darken the surrounding sky again, since at that point it had become quite bright and then added the stars back in

PS: I hope this is enough about the process. If I should edit/add anything let me know!

You ask the impossible

Hmm yeah that's true... So really the question is who decides what "sufficiently anonymized" actually means. Or what counts as personal data and what does not. Probably only a court can answer these questions since the GDPR is not very precise in that regard

I guess the best way to find out is to request deletion of all data including comments and posts, and if they don't comply then take them to court or file a complaint with your national Data Protection Authority

The website also states that „properly anonymized data“ is not affected by the GDPR.

The only things from that list, that should be posted on a public internet forum, are race, gender and political views anyways. And it isn‘t really possible to identify a single user based on these data points

By submitting content to Reddit you also granted them an irrevocable license to use it (according to their ToS) and Art.17, 3a of the GDPR protects data that is not identifiable from deletion

But I guess it‘s worth a try. Maybe their DPO is a nice guy

I think if that works it would be a great solution! Processing copyright claims is pretty time-consuming, so they‘d have to put a lot of work into it

But the Reddit ToS states that by submitting content to their Services you

grant [Reddit] a worldwide, royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable, non-exclusive, transferable, and sublicensable license to use, copy, modify, adapt, prepare derivative works of, distribute, store, perform, and display Your Content

You‘re right, you can use the GDPR to delete personal data. But again, I don‘t think posts and comment are considered personal data and that they would not have to be removed since they are essential to understanding the discussion as a whole

The GDPR was never intended to be able to destroy information, just to protect the privacy of users. So as long as there‘s no information that could identify a user in their posts/comments (which no one should make publicly available anyways) then Reddit is under no obligation to delete the content you generated. They only have to disassociate it from your account, which they do by displaying the username as „deleted“

The creative ways found by the communities to tell spez to fuck off is one of the few good things that has come from this disaster

There‘s clearly only one way forward for r/pics!

You‘re right, if the law was applicable then they‘d have to „process“(delete) the data.

But since the right to information weighs heavier than the right to be forgotten (except when it comes to personal data, which can be used to identify a user) Reddit is not required by the GDPR to delete posts/comments that do not contain such information

But we can‘t really know for sure what counts as personal data unless someone drags a company in front of a court over something like this

Firefox and sometimes Safari. Since I also have a Windows machine I like to use the same browser on both devices. And I don‘t like giving more data to Google by using Chrome. They know enough about me already

@sensibilidades is probably right that they could just restore the previous state from a backup

In addition to that is a name not necessarily information that would identify you. There are many people out there that share the same name. It would require additional personal information, like address, phone number or something like that

Even if that would help deleting a users Reddit history I wouldn‘t exactly recommend posting putting that information on the internet

I think you should definitely try, but I don't think it'll work. According to this stackexchange question they could argue that deleting your comments would break the cohesiveness of the discussion and make the available information incomplete.

Art.17, 3a states that the right to be forgotten is not applicable if processing of the data is required to exercise freedom of information. So I don't think posts or comments are affected by the GDPR as long as they don't contain any information that would identify a user
