I used a tool that edited my comments to replace it with gibberish. Supposedly Reddit still retains deleted comments but if you edit them, it only keeps the latest version. So by editing it you make the comments worthless.
I also edited my comments to be basically a Lemmy ad and completely deleted the posts except in a few communities where it could be helpful in the future.
Just redacted 5 years worth of comments with this. Now to let my account sit for a few months so their backups have only my latest masterpieces. Thanks!!!
I ran a script over all of my comments (through my browser) to edit them into something about how spez had back stabbed the community. I had tens? hundreds of thousands? of comments.
It took several hours to run, but I did a forward pass (newest to oldest) and a backwards pass (oldest to newest). It bugged out because it had to run so long but I think I got it all.
I’m not sure this will really do anything because you could pretty easily statistically isolate any one who did what I did, and roll their account history back to a prior state in the training data.
Regardless, it was the least I could do on the way out the door.
What do you mean by corrupt?

What tool? I’d like to use it as well.
I used redact.dev
Thank you
Edit - This worked great thank you. Was able to scrub my Twitter as well.

I simply got permabanned and my account disappeared.
I did the same, just edited them to basically say Lemmy better and deleted all my posts, then my account.
It replaces them with gibberish. I did the same for my 12+ years worth.
