I’m a fully mobile user, so that limits my options. I don’t just want to delete my account but also delete my posts and comments.
I was mostly shitposting but still had some 200k Karma so it could pinch Reddit a bit to remove that but it won’t hurt users or Google search since I wasn’t doing anything ‘productive’ or ‘helpful’.
I used Redact, which has an Android version available if that’s what you’re using. An iOS version is planned. I use it on my computer.
I ended up using it as well and it worked wonders. Took about 25 minutes to delete 7 years of data
Question. Doesn’t reddit or archive sites still have the posts and comments even after this wipe is done?
Reddit itself shouldn’t and they can’t keep the content you created and deleted because that would be against GDPR. The various archives sites can be used to still find it though.
Ah didn’t know. I tried to use redact to delete. It only went into chat and did nothing. If I delete posts and comments manually it’s gone right? What about AI peeps who already got my old posts? Do they legally have to delete that as well? (I hope Lemmy doesn’t let 3rd parties use our content).
I used Redact as well and it wiped everything. Posts and comments alike.
They have to delete it as well but you have to contact them and request it.
