Nuking old Reddit accounts
Nuking old Reddit accounts
I took part in the Reddit blackout a month ago, and accessed Reddit through Apollo. After the blackout I looked at Reddit a handful of times and then let my association with Reddit die with Apollo.
I haven’t been there since, but now I feel as though I should have deleted my account of 7 years, that way everything I ever contributed will be gone.
However, to accomplish this as you all know I should delete all my posts first and edit all comments. I was wondering what people used to do this. I want everything to read “Edit: moved to Lemmy”.
I’m sure others migrating here have the same question. Thanks.
You're viewing a single thread.
This is the one I used to purge like a third of my post history so far: https://github.com/j0be/PowerDeleteSuite
Seems to be working well.
Be careful not to just delete your account and your comments but to make your comments unusable through editing them. That way, there is nothing useful in there should admins decide to restore your comments against your will.
It's not just a conspiracy theory that they have restored deleted comments.
I deleted all of my comments twice because they were restored after the "blackout" a few weeks ago, even though they were deleted well before that outage started.
I am in this pickle and idk what to do. I purged all my content and requested the data under gdpr. Finally I got my data and what do ya know? Theres a whole section of my (undeleted???) comments, with additional info like date, which subreddit etc. Before I purged my comments I edited them saying "fuck spez" lol and the list I got from Reddit was mixed edited and unedited. How is that even possible?When I log in, my page is empty, as if everything is actually deleted. What to do now?
Exactly. I've heard the same from many other Lemmings here.
Really? I used PowerDeleteSuite myself, but I did it a few days before they locked up the API. My understanding was that PowerDeleteSuit needed API access to work.
I had read the same thing, but it did work for me a couple of days ago. YMMV obviously.
I was planning on deleting the rest soon; I can post an update if you're interested.
Yeah, please let me know how that goes. I'm curious.
Are you a moderator for any subreddits? I've heard that API access is still a thing if you're a mod, so maybe that's why?
Well, on paper, I am a mod, but the subs are like less than 10 subs big or so, so I doubt it's that.
From my understanding it doesn't matter- you can just make your own sub on the spot. There's not (presently) a limit on subscribers or anything like that.
That's good intel, then. Good to know.
Thanks! And I love your DP!
Sorry, DP? Kinda at a loss here lol.
Display pic. I’m a big D2 fan as well
Thanks, me too! Haven't really given D4 a thorough go, but I assume it's fun too. D2 is where it's at, though. Superb soundtrack, super nostalgic sound design and overall look. Just awesome.
What are your thoughts on D4?
The quick version of that is I’m enjoying it, but it’s no Diablo 2.
To me, after about 30 hours of play… I don’t like how everything scales with you and I’m not crazy about the way stats and mechanics are set up, but other than that it’s enjoyable.
Agree with all points. Not super stoked about everything scaling with you either.
On the one hand, it's cool because you're never too strong/too weak. On the other hand, you're never too strong/too weak.
Right. One of the best things about Diablo 1 and 2 to me were being able to grind a bit, and noticing how much stronger you were after you leveled a few times. I remember my first play through in Diablo 1 I got my ass beat in Act 4… so I went back and reran Act 3 portions and leveled a few times which helped a lot.
Your character never feels stronger, and you don’t really get rewarded much for leveling in D4… because you make everything else stronger too when you level. So that’s a big bummer for me, even though I was excited about at first
I was watching a MrLlama video about how he feels about D4 and its level progression. It hurt so much when he said your character is at their strongest when the bears that you encounter in the first area can be one-shot at lvl 3-4ish but never again throughout the rest of the game(play).
Yep, exactly. And to me that’s very broken. A good game but with major flaws imo
