What is Reddit account scrubbing/washing?
People deleted their posts before they deleted their accounts and some found their posts to magically reappear, so they started to edit their posts and comments to say something like „.“ or „fuck u/spez“ before deleting so if they got restored, they would be useless for reddit in the searches or advertising
A good tool would be the Power Delete Suite from j0beon github
It’s easy/simple to use and thorough, you can even download a csv of your stuff
I can tell you from using it though that if you have an old account it will not get it all because reddit doesn’t load up the older stuff through your overview consistently.
It was pointed out that you can do a data request and find all your old stuff through that data, but they’re isn’t currently a script to plug it in to that’ll do it automatically.
There is: github.com/andrewbanchich/shreddit
User interface is nonexistent, but it does the job.
