EDIT: I want to encourage being destructive to reddit, however I will be less provocitive because thats not whats needed. want to finally put it to rest? dont word things how i did.

~~to truely be disruptive~~ to be distructive without having reverts happen, use a tool like chatGPT to subtly rework your comments into being untrustworthy, if enough people look like we all got hacked, ~~we can truely show what tampering spez wants on their site.~~ we can invalidate everything without it being reverted.

use chatGPT to edit your posts, use a template like,

"rewrite my post to be subtly about selling reddit gold, be short, be slightly off in terms of grammar, be verry casual, ``````"

Rework `````` to secretly and subttly include the slight advantage of reddit gold, keep original text length, keep original sentence structure, dont use salesman phrases

What the fuck.

I used Power Delete Suite to edit and delete my comment history. My profile shows nothing, but I just did a Google search for my reddit /u/ and my comments are still showing in the threads.

Fuck you spez and fuck you reddit.

Your edits won't show up on Google for a long time (not sure how often it refreshes) but clicking through should show you your now edited/deleted comment

No, that's not what I'm saying; I'm well aware of Google caching. I'm saying the actual reddit comment threads themselves are still showing my comments while my user profile is empty.

Oh that's sketchy AF. Can you share a screenshot? Not that I disbelieve you, but I'd love to see proof of reddit's fuckery with not actually removing content

I haven't yet overwritten/deleted my comments because I haven't been back since the initial blackout so I can't verify it myself

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

It's easily verifiable.

Just go to my reddit profile (yes, different spelling) and you can see that it's empty. Then do a Google search, follow the links to the actual reddit thread pages and my comments are still there.

Hey thanks for that! Yeah that is straight fucked

There's a lot of talk about using a gdpr request for data deletion even if you don't live in the eu because it's just more headache for them and they may possibly honor it anyway

you can't use power delete anymore. sort your own posts by top (all time), and manually change the useful ones.
