Deleted facebook last year and reddit this year. Felt so good.

Most deletion tools only view the profile pages, they have a 1k non refreshing cap. So only 1k newest, 1k top etc. . So otherwise delete account just makes the rest against a [deleted] user the posts are all still there.

I went to check it out recently and I don’t recognize it anymore. Spending some time away was good for me. 11 years and it’s gone.

Same, but I was snapped out of existence for "violating the rules". For talking about shooting paper targets at a gun range. apparently that is threatening violence.

I didn't delete my account or any of my posts when I left Reddit. Felt too much like punishing Reddit users and searchers of random information and not enough like punishing Spez.

I dunno. Aside from "fuck Spez" (which, don't get me wrong, I can't say is entirely unappealing), what's the argument to be made for deleting your post history via something like PowerDeleteSuite rather than just leaving and never visiting Reddit again?

I debated whether or not I should wipe my post/comment history, but ultimately I decided that I just didn't want reddit to have anything I created, no matter how worthless it is.

Is there a way to download my saved items? I haven't gotten around to deleting yet and want to use PDS to do it thoroughly.

Power Delete Suite has the option to save a local backup before nuking your posts/comments from orbit.
