Inb4 they don't actually delete your account... I've seen people dealing with their account still existing long after they requested it to be deleted.

I ran a script to over write and delete my comments, but left the account open as a placeholder.

Have still received comment replies to my posts twice. When I went to see the comment it was deleted.

When I did this I got a zillion automated PM's from some bot whining about, "Please stop running a script on our sub!"

Yeah? Get fucked. I was tempted to run it again just to be an ass. But I have things to do.

A lot of your old history is not accessible from within your comment history in your profile. Reddit is just broken spaghetti code in a lot of ways.

if you request all of your reddit account data they provide you with every comment/ edited or deleted, from memory anyway

dont post things on the internet that you dont want other people to see, as a reminder

A soft delete is about the only sane way to handle this kind of information, to be honest. People already used the delete feature for harassment, but imagine if there was no way to see the deletions on Reddits side, a report of the harassment would mean nothing.

Yes, the right to be forgotten exists, but it’s much more in depth to create an account, harass someone in comments so it reaches their notifications, then request a deletion of the account. Vs just deleting the comment and doing it again and again.

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

**No illegal or NSFW or gore content. **



Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.



Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding META posts.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.



Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.

If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



:::spoiler Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.
