Power delete suite on GitHub . Copy a JavaScript and paste on the address bar while reading your profile. A new interface will come and can decide what to delete or overwrite
I ended up using shreddit, a Rust remake of an unmaintained Python script (https://github.com/x89/Shreddit). I had to keep running it over and over, but, I think that was the Reddit API’s fault. If you end up using it, I recommend running it in a loop unless you want to keep running the same command over and over.
Anyway, it deleted all posts and comments, but messages in my inbox are still there. I’m fine with that for now but eventually want to clear that out I think.
If you’re thinking of doing this I’d recommend running it before the API changes since the script uses it.
I ended up still using Redact since I already had it set up, and it managed to overwrite and remove all my history without issue in one swoop :) Thanks anyways for the alternative, I’m sure it’ll help someone else out!
be aware, you need to use a tool to wipe your content before deleting the account, otherwise all the posts will be up again
Any suggestions on tools to use?

I’ve been told that Redact is good, but haven’t used it myself yet
Thanks, I’ll take a look around. Redact looks good but I’d rather something FOSS if I can find it. If I find anything I’ll post here.
Yea agreed, please let me know if you find something! Thanks and good luck!

Thanks! Perfect; I plan to use it ASAP!
Glad to be of help! Let me know your experience with it.
