Gotta be honest, watching the titles of the posts getting deleted made me a bit nostalgic, because it was an almost 5yo account.
However, now that's old news, and my account is totally gone.
I won't miss it really, I like Lemmy a lot more.
You can never fully delete your reddit account.
Find some old threads that you commented on years ago; chances are that a good portion of them are still there. Your reddit history doesn't show everything, and AFAIK there are no tools available that can effectively eliminate every single post you've ever made, unless of course you simply didn't make many comments and posts to begin with.
This is only the case if it's less than 1000 posts or comments
Can't you just keep running it over an over?
Nope. Reddit orphans posts and comments from accounts. I don't know the hows or whys.
Last week I stumbled on a 15 year account who tried to do a full wipe before abandoning reddit. Their last and only comment in their profile is their farewell message. Except when you Google search their username it shows their content is still there. Just not associated to their profile page anymore.
Request a GDPR export and you will get your entire comment history. There are tools that can read that history and delete all the comments. I did encounter errors deleting a small number of comments which may have been due to the subs being privated. I deleted the problem ones from the json and the rest got deleted. I manually checked a sample of the 12 years of comments to confirm the accessible ones were being deleted.
Delete your account, look again in 3 months to see if account is gone.
If not request deletion via email amd if not followed by a satisfactory action, file a gdpr complaint. That will fuck them over a bit.
