When I saw this news yesterday, it made me realize I hadn't used Reddit almost at all since the purge last summer. I ran the PowerDelete tool last night to nuke my profile and then deleted my account this morning. 10 years of posts and comments gone but ill be damned if im going to let those posts stay and train AI to make this douche canoe any more money.
Do you have any way of verifying that it is actually gone? I bet it's just gone from view but the data is still there.
I'll be filing a GDPR claim per account to get my data and have them permanently delete my content and information
