Why YSK: Because you may delete your account and find your comments and other content is restored and beyond your control.

DO NOT DELETE YOUR ACCOUNT YET.

Keep overwriting your comments over and over so they cannot just roll them back a single edit.

I prefer Power Delete Suite as it does not need authorization and just uses the website through your own browser. I will continue to overwrite my comments on repeat until the API changes.

    It seems like this could be another PR problem for Reddit if it becomes common knowledge that you effectively cannot edit or delete comments that you have posted. It would also seem to conflict with the European-style “right to be forgotten”.
