Just tell them you live in the EU and you want to exercise your right to be forgotten, therefore you want them to delete all the data they have on you permanently. They'll comply, trust me.
Also you can first download all the data they have on you, as required by the GDPR, if you want to backup some of it.
This sounds illegal
Shit, this made me look at my okd account and sane thing happened. I wish I was in the EU, I could report them for ignoring my deletion request (I actually also asked for the user to be deleted)
I find it very funny to think of how aggressively Reddit was banning people, particularly back in 2016. And how algorithmic they got in censoring and shadowbanning certain comments and accounts.
But now that real human interactions are more valuable than gold, they're trying to reverse it all again.
I know there are some databases of all Reddit comments prior to... maybe 2015? I forget. Would be cool to port them into an open source clone that isn't profiting off them, just for the times comments were really useful, like solving a tech issue only a couple people had ever documented.
At one time, Reddit (or at least the core server) was open source. Statistically, it's relatively likely that someone, somewhere forked and is maintaining that code for their own purposes to this day, but I'm not actively aware of any examples.
If someone has been maintaining a fork, I'd love to see the old comment database imported into it and made available, though I don't know offhand what license either the code or the comments were released under.
A FOSS Reddit, without the chaos that took over America during the presidential administration installed in 2016, and branching from there, would be an interesting point of diversion to say the least.
Edit: quickie DDG search found me one fork archived in 2023 and a further form updated a year or so ago. That’s recent enough the damn thing just might build with a little work.
2023 fork of open source reddit
I’m sure there are others…
I'm pretty sure they undeleted mine and my whole account
If you live in the EU at least, I’m pretty sure much of this outright evil stuff Reddit is doing is illegal. If you want to delete your account and comments, they have to let you.
Ohhhh wow, they did the same thing to me! What absolute scumbags.
Edit: I'm going to explore the use of Power Delete Suite once I get home. This is total bullshit.
I used power delete suite last year. Just checked and most of my profile is back. Assholes.
What happens if you create a fake community that only posts fake ai posts? Who is gonna ban you? It’s a genuine question
This is basically what Subreddit Simulator did for years.
Nothing, because that doesn't cost Reddit short term money so they don't care?
But you can fill up reddit with the most insane shit and they will train AI on it, both reddit and google.
The fact that they are restoring valuable comments and posts means that they need them. But what if the most knowledgeable people on the platform go crazy? It is illegal to conspire against companies?
I don't think that could be done at a scale that matters, because it doesn't make you any money.
TBH the bigger threat is the corporate bots that already post in "human" subs. They're destroying the site already, but Reddit doesn't really care about that either, lol.
Yea, true probably…it would have been fun tho.
That sucks.
I deleted all my comments/posts on reddit a couple of years ago via a UI automation script, and they are still deleted, luckily.
You should delete your account. It can't be used again on Reddit (unless they change their policy). If you're worried about being identified, then it's better to just delete the account anyway than the alternative.
They appropriated /u/borat. It was an inactive account which was removed and given to the producers of the film to use for an AMA when it was released.
spez, kn0thin, and reddit the company as a whole have zero scruples. There are no rules but what they say at any given moment. It's subject to change at any time.
Like I said if they change their policy (even for a user) and allow someone else to use it, it is better than having all of your identifying information tied together under a username.
I had a similar issue. I had probably two million comment karma spread across about a dozen accounts. My first account was quickly auto-banned from several subreddits as soon as I started editing old comments. Those pro-spez mods had seen what people were doing during the exodus, and set the automod to ban those who tried.
Then I did the same with my second, third, fourth, etc accounts. All of those were immediately site banned for ban evasion, because I was interacting with subs my first account had just been banned in. So none of the edits on those later accounts were pushed through.
Reddit later un-banned those accounts, and all of my old comments were visible again. Likely to make the old comments show up.
I’ve replaced all of my Reddit comments for the past year with AI generated nonsense. It seems to have stuck. I plan on going through all of my past comments but will spread it out over time so that it’s harder to restore.
IMO the key is making a post that writes gibberish but that is good enough to suck a user in to read it for a few seconds before they realize it is BS. That kills the user experience and poisons the site.
God you're evil.
How can I do it?
