no profile to check-- i also deleted my account. but, like I said: I sanitized all of my comments first.

The script I use edits comments ("e" is what I have it set to), then deletes them. Reddit restored my comments as they were before the edit to "e". If that's what you mean by "sanitizing", that part is apparently not foolproof. Hopefully deleting the entire account doesn't get rolled back.

Unless you sent them a gdpr request they have all your edit history saved
