I was perma-banned from Reddit after 7 years for mentioning facts about Elon Musk and his Boring Company's Not a Flamethrower contraption. No hate speech, nothing obscene or gory, just plain facts, with supporting links. I appealed twice, they denied my appeal.
I've left my account intact though, but have highly debated with myself whether to use one of the mass overwrite services to edit all my posts and comments into pure random garbage, then rewrite all of that again to say FUCK SPEZ!!!
From my understanding, they keep a backup of your previous comments before your edit, so it's necessary to overwrite it at least twice, or they can just flip the switch and restore all your mass edited comments.
The only reason I haven't done it yet is because my account still allows me to view communities tagged as NSFW, but hell, the only time I visit Reddit anymore is when someone happens to toss me an interesting link.
IDGAF if the AI has already 'learned' things from my posts, I probably partly corrupted it's digital brain anyways. Many of my posts were factual, some were random rants, and a good number of them were just lighthearted trolling.
If I stumbled into a post showing some sort of random roadkill or some nasty shit, half the time I might be like 'Are you gonna eat that?'. Yes, I might be partly to blame for why AI has such a poor concept of food consumption. ππ€£
Obligatory FUCK SPEZ!!!

Use old.reddit
It don't give two shits about NSFW content and still shows you everything
Using Reddit's trashy normal site has the weird 'create an account bullshit to see NSFW content'
The day that stopped is the last day I would ever touch that site.
To add to this; if you get one of those "this community isn't reviewed please make an account" things, old.reddit gets past all that, too.
Well hot damn, I didn't know old.reddit could do that. Thank you very kindly for sharing that knowledge!
Welp, one of these days soon, whenever I get a chance, I might take the deep dive and nuke my Reddit altogether. π
Damn, I didn't know you could just overwrite all your comments and stuff. I should've done that, but alas, what's done is done. Maybe if I changed them all to "fuck u/spez" my whole account would be nuked, comments and all
Yep, sure can. I edited my comment to include the link for Power Delete Suite...

I did the same last year, but a bunch are back. Not all twelve years worth, but half of them. Gonna make another run at it....
Iβm sure they keep all the edits, it wonβt matter how many times you overwrite it youβre just making new versions.
