Well, when I was permabanned, I could still create an API key and run a script like github shreddit to wipe my account out. I never lost access to my account, I just couldn't add new posts/comments or send messages to anyone.

I was permabanned but everything was still there, nothing was deleted. I still had to use a combo of a script to delete things plus manual deletion.

FYI for those who are worried that they aren't covered by a law like the GDPR/CCPA (or even PIPEDA/LGPD/CPA/VCDPA) and that reddit might not give it to them, I came up with a way to get a similar list (bypassing the limits) here, https://kbin.social/m/RedditMigration/t/65260/PSA-Here-s-exactly-what-to-do-if-you-hit-the

Yep, I covered this previously, https://kbin.social/m/RedditMigration/t/47320/PSA-If-you-have-more-than-1000-posts-more-than

Along with a method to deal with this, even if you don't think you can get your GDPR archive, https://kbin.social/m/RedditMigration/t/65260/PSA-Here-s-exactly-what-to-do-if-you-hit-the

I never got a chance to follow up with https://kbin.social/m/RedditMigration/t/107907/POLL-Should-we-sticky-some-PSA-We-need-to-warn but I think I should soon.

There is a way to do this, pushshift is gone but the torrents are still available and you can use that, see https://kbin.social/m/RedditMigration/t/65260/PSA-Here-s-exactly-what-to-do-if-you-hit-the

I am pretty sure PDS does not currently support using the GDPR archive, and thus can miss things.

[–] abff08f4813c@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

Ah, recommend trying out https://github.com/andrewbanchich/shreddit - that one you can feed your archive and it will figure out the links on its own

[–] abff08f4813c@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

Ah I think I remember that. It was r/mildlyinteresting iirc - an admin demodded the entire mod team for breaking a rule that they didn't actually break (they filled the flag but didn't actually allow any NSFW) and a different admin added them back.

[–] abff08f4813c@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

I did something similar - see https://kbin.social/m/RedditMigration/t/65260/PSA-Here-s-exactly-what-to-do-if-you-hit-the (though I didn't have the benefit of the archive). TTThe other thing to look out for is that I'm not sure if you can delete comments or submissions from private subs.,, but you can at least modify the script to warn you about those ids and then you can monitor and wait for the sub to go unprivate (or as the mods to add you to the approved users list)

Recommend giving https://github.com/andrewbanchich/shreddit a try - it supports using the GDPR archive out of the box, no code changes required.

the same way ~~api protesters~~ reddit thinks they are entitled to having ~~reddit bend to their will~~ api protesters give them free money for nothing after taking away the apps that make reddit bearable

there, fixed that for you
