“Find and post crypto jobs.” https://cryptojobs.gg/
Been going through and deleting my reddit comments in preparation for the end of third party apps. Sad to see how this turns out
Manually reviewing or using something like https://redact.dev/?
I wonder how the api changes will affect redact, and pushshift for that matter… (does redact just use pushshift under the hood?)
Pretty sure pushshift is shutting down
RIP my deleteRedditPosts script
I would expect redact to stop working, no? Which is why I made sure to nuke all my posts well before the deadline.
What’s scary is one user reporting seeing their posts reinstated after deletion, not once but twice. Unclear whether it was an intentional move by Reddit to rollback deletions against user wishes, or an unspecified sync issue that retrieved posts from an unsynced server somewhere.
Either way, past the deadline, it won’t be realistic to manually nuke thousands of posts and comments in your history, so get it done before the deadline! And don’t delete your account entirely in case Reddit pulls that post resuscitation trick, or you won’t be able to access them again.
Manually, just for fun 🤣. I might not make it by the shut down though
Why delete?
deny them what they would deny you? I don’t know but doing it out of spite would be reason enough even before we try to find a rationale like “I don’t want them to exploit my likeness in AI”
Why not delete? If I’m no longer on the platform, and I have the option, I wanna clear out (or at the very least obfuscate) my data.
For me it was to not leave so many crumbs and doxxing risks, especially on a platform that I’ve lost all trust in.
Just out of spite 😛
