deleting all of your reddit comments is surprisingly hard. even the nuker extension takes its time.

Posted by chicken daddy (aka colinski) Sep 22 '21, 07:11

the story from this week reminded me that i don't need all of that history hanging out on the internet from years and years ago.

i'll probably take the stance of sanitizing my account over every 2 to 3 months old.

Cache and Archive is one helluva drug to overcome. -- nm - budice Sep 22, 07:17 3
- yah, the overwrite then delete method seems to be pretty permanent, but it's a time-consuming process, even scripted. -- nm - chicken daddy Sep 22, 07:18 2
  - Can you parallelize it? -- nm - Beryllium Sep 22, 08:13 1
    - oh, maybe. yeah. i'll check that next time i need to do this. -- nm - chicken daddy Sep 22, 08:47
There are a ton of people who do that. Delete comments rather soon after they've been posted. Most are using it to avoid troll detection though. - Qale Sep 22, 07:16 3
- reddit has become a pretty horrible place...even the most benign subs get flooded with racists comments and posts (plus fascist content) - chicken daddy Sep 22, 07:20 2
  - Houston subreddit is unusable now. I'd blocked over a hundred accounts and it was semi-legible. But it's toast. -- nm - Qale Sep 22, 07:27 1
    - richmond was the same.. nice community, friendly, got overrun last summer and those folks never left. the community is a gutter now. -- nm - chicken daddy Sep 22, 07:37
