When Reddit's API debacle happened lots of people moved away. Some deleted their comments, some edited them with a message in protest. But sadly the consequences is that a lot of history and useful information got lost in the process.
I don't know how I feel about this. I understand why it's done and even why it needs to be done, but it still makes me sad considering the amount of times where Reddit saved me from massive headaches with IT stuff and so on...
As someone who deleted their posts... yes. The goal was to make Reddit worse, by removing my contributions to it because they forgot where their value came from.
My content had some small value to them. They didn't deserve it.

I did the same.
Reddit showed it didn't give a fsck about my user experience with their banning of third party apps, but they still wanted to sell the content I put the effort in to providing.
Screw you guys. You want to make money off hosting my words, whatever. But don't stick a pineapple up my arse at the same time and expect me not to feel it.

Thanks for getting me to finally run one of these scripts to scramble and delete everything in my old account. Fuck every American corporation and their user experience.
They restored all my comments a few months later, so I've tried it again by editing all my comments to gibberish.

'23 is late enough, but it should be peppered with comments overwritten by 60 random words, just to make it worse
How would I go about doing this? I want to nuke all my comments since I know deleting my account won't
Edited with Power Delete Suite - https://github.com/j0be/PowerDeleteSuite
I do this every few months, scans the page, makes the changes. You can see with my account https://old.reddit.com/u/thermal_shock
Been about a month, will probably run it this weekend. Surprising I've only been blocked in some subs, no ban even though I said they all the billionaires should be killed lol

There were tools to do it for your... but after the massive migration they blocked a ton (part of the API block that drove everyone away)

Yeah.. I did this too when leaving. Made a small app to edit and delete every comment I made. I actually had a useful IT related self hosting post which was also nuked. I guess that's the price the whole community had to pay for reddits thirst for profit.
Although, long ago, I heard of a rumor; all of reddit was frequently backed up and available for download. Is that still a thing? Was it ever a thing?

This post was mass deleted and anonymized with Redact
… so now they’re linking to the deleted comments? Lol I guess they do need the users…
good, but it's not enough
The comment says removed, but the user says deleted.
And because of the large number of people who not only left Reddit, but burnt bridges in doing so by using tools to delete or garble their entite post history, it's hard to tell if this was Reddit's doing or just that of a fed-up user who deleted their own posts when leaving the site.

The latter, Reddit doesn't remove your comments and posts when your account gets deleted.
