I spent a chunk of this afternoon nuking my old reddit posts. Thousands and thousands of posts... thank goodness for shreddit.
Most tools miss a ton bc of the limitations of the website and api. The best, pretty much only, way to get everything is to get an export of your data, then use that csv to delete all items one by one
Yup, shreddit has the ability to use the csv from the data request. Took me about 24 hours to edit and erase the 20.000+ comments I made over the last 10 years.
Does shreddit have the ability to exclude certain subreddits because I want to exclude my comments on one subreddot but overwrite the rest of them
I did that before they went through with their api bullshit, I'm so happy, it was fully automated. Just typed in the replacement massege and that's it
I didn't know about this. I just went into it.
edit: lol you have to pay for Shreddit. Nevermind, I don't care about deleting my posts that much.
No, not the website: the git project.
If you want a web app, try redact.dev (yes, there's a paid version where you can download your old messages, but the free one wipes out your posts (with random text) for free.
