This video shows that Reddit refused to delete all comments and posts of its users when they close their account via a CCPA / GDPR request.
This is absolutely insane, and shows that companies OWN you.
I’ve been going in and doing batches of edits to my post history every few days, and editing it differently. From ten years ago to now, I’ve had posts re-appearing and the edits getting un-edited.
Are you absolutely certain? I just as well might not bother with the mass edit then.
The issue there isn’t that Reddit stores the edit history (that would be too much storage space), but that it doesn’t apply the edit at all and just pretends to if it you recently edited something else. You need to wait after each edit for your next edit to go through.
I had success with this Power Delete Suite fork, which waits for 5 seconds after each edit.
