Remove your comment history on Reddit as deleting an account does not do so.
Shreddit and PowerDeleteSuite were last updated years ago. I’ve used redact.dev which can also edit your comments to random strings before deleting them as “deleting” on Reddit doesn’t delete anything but only hides it from public view.
I’m now also doing a manual pass by using a Google search for
“mbirth”
(incl. quotes!) followed bysite:reddit.com
and a date filter for everything of like 10 years ago and then manually delete all the comments the deletion tools didn’t catch via the API.OP posted the out of date Shreddit. There’s a new one written in Rust that was updated just last month.
Fixed!
Powerdeletesuite also lets you overwrite the comments though not with random strings. I overwrote them all with “fuck /u/spez”
I’ve heard Power Delete Suite suggested as a potentially superior alternative, am planning to try it out in a few days time!
With Power Delete Suite you can also edit your comment & post history. Useful for example if you want to change all your content to Fuck u/spez :)

Here is an updated shreddit written in rust. https://github.com/andrewbanchich/shreddit. I used it yesterday and it worked. The only issue is it seems to only process 25 entries at time so you need to run the code in a loop. In bash you can do something like:
while :;do ./shreddit args;done
and kill it once it completes.I updated the main post. Good work!
This is the first time I’ve tried scripts/programs like this. Am I doing this right? I still have my main account left. Just one more to go.
Haha this is funny. It seems even overwriting the posts as well?
btw
while true; do <shreddit command> ;done
will do it for the 25 post limit
It only does a handful over time but you can loop it with a bat file. I left it on and deleted ten years of comments and posts. It felt good. :)
I love the name
It is certainly hilarious
