I’ve been on reddit spreading the good word of Lemmy and Kbin, and occasionally the text of one of my comments will be replaced with [Removed by Reddit]
Any idea what could be provoking this? It seems to happen way more often on the big subreddits. It seems automated to me, but sometimes deleting my comment and reposting a copy seems to bypass whatever is doing the deleting? But only sometimes. Idk.
wait, do posts and comments not get deleted after you delete the account? I only did that
The comment text itself stays but the user says “deleted”. You need to use an external tool to delete the post content. Normally I wouldn’t nuke my comment history, but the API changes may make such tools stop working soon.
do you know what tool I could use? before I run out of time lol
Looks like people are recommending https://github.com/j0be/PowerDeleteSuite. Also, don’t delete your account, you will need to continuously log in and re-delete posts that come back. Not sure if this is intentional on Reddit’s part or just unreliable servers being restored from intermittent backups.> FearTheCron
