If you are thinking about deleting your Reddit's history (comments, posts, etc), do it before the end of this month (github.com)

There are tools out there that help with this, but the better ones like the one I linked use the API.

I don't know what will happen to them next month, but if you are thinking about it, keep in mind that they may not be around or work like they do today, and you may have to use other more convoluted tools.

I used this tool myself. It deleted thousands of posts & comments automatically. It's pretty simple to use.

same and i agree. it's really easy to use, and even if it throws errors, it still was able to delete everything off my reddit of 10 years.

It's like breaking up with an ex and deleting old photos. What a weight off!

LOL! for me personally, when i thought of deleting my account, i wanted it 100% gone and not just my posts with a [deleted] for a username on them.

Having been active for a better part of 10 years it can definitely be a little emotional wiping it all, but it's for the best. Fuck them and all they stand for.
