So it has now been over a month since I last used Reddit, and I’m now looking at deleting my account there.

However before I do so, I have heard of “poisoning” my comments and posts on there using automated tools, or mass deleting everything before actually account deleting.

So my questions are, is mass deleting or poisoning still worthwhile? And does anyone have any recommendations of tools or scripts to facilitate this? It’s not a massive account, but 3121 contributions is still too much to go through manually.

Thanks everyone!

    Yeah, it would be ideal for people to repost any useful content to somewhere like the fediverse so it can still be indexed and findable.

    Anyway, I’m personally still happier to have removed my contribution to their profits, negligible as it may be, even if it did mean losing information. Sorry to that dude who ran into the same tech problem as me and needs the solution I found 10 years ago!
