Reddit decided that i can’t delete my account, i tried several times with no luck. Do you have ideas? Should i get myself banned?
If anyone is considering the same don’t forget to use shreddit first.
Do it on the desktop website, their mobile stuff is broken beyond repair.
Go on there and state that you believe that Nazis should be punched. They’ll ban your account.
Don’t delete your account. There are browser plugins that will edit all your posts to nonsense to fuck up AI models. Be a burden.
They reverted mine before. It’s Reddit, if they don’t have backups or methods to detect mass edits or deletions, I’d be shocked.
But the reversion sets them back and requires resources
Shit. I would have done this.
Just do something to get it banned.
No, don’t. Banned accounts look good in their statistics to investors, like they care about users and enforce strict moderation. Or they shrug you off as part of a bot army or something.
Actual deletion means a conscious act of a user to leave the platform.
Just send a GDPR deletion request. You can find ready made texts online. Just plug in your email/username and send it. Make sure to request a confirmation of the deletion.
Wouldn’t that require an EU citizenship/ residence? I always assumed that was the case…
Make a comment saying „Luigi is good“ or something like that, that should get rid of your Reddit account.
Just get banned. It’s pretty easy nowadays.
Yeah, there’s a simple code for it, you just have to type “Luigi spez” and they’ll handle this for you.
I’ve been trying to delete my Facebook for years
Are people really having trouble with it? I did it several years ago. I recall it being a fairly easy process.
I’m gonna see if that link from the other comment works, but I’ve tried a few times and the page to delete your account mysteriously would never load for me.
Are you using a VPN or browser they don’t like? Have you tried on a different device? It might be worth trying.
There was a browser add-on that removes or edits all your Reddit messages. Can’t recall the name though.
This doesn’t work anymore they shut down the api , if your in a gdpr country just enforce your right.
The add-on, called “Nuke Reddit History,” no longer uses the API, just good ol’ fashioned JavaScript.
It takes a bit longer, but it does the job.
Nice ill check it out.
Hypothetically, if you live in
freedomburger land could you use a VPN and claim gdpr enforcement? Or is there more to it?If they ask for verification which they can do , basicly they can disagree , also if your acc is outside EU gdpr could maybe not apply .
