I first saw this on reddit, but I figured it would be good to make sure that this also stays accessible on another platform

Well, the issue is that it depends on how you set eraser. Just doing a delete on an SSD has the same issue with just doing a delete on an HDD at the OS level for the file recovery. But SSDs don’t really have the same need to overwrite a lot of times. So you could set Eraser to overwrite once with zeros or random values to successfully “shred” a single file.
