Reddit decided that i can’t delete my account, i tried several times with no luck. Do you have ideas? Should i get myself banned?
Make sure you go back and delete every comment or posting first.
Try the website, old.reddit.com in particular.
That's funny. I live in a small country so I can't stop being banned. All I have to do is comment "hey" and my account is gone instantly.
why? does reddit just assume any and all traffic from your country is VPN traffic?
it's not just Reddit. it's more websites every year.
I've worked as a sysadmin at companies who have done it. they blacklist an ASN which covers an entire ISP, or they just straight up ban the entire country. it's the easiest way to get rid of a few kids running penetration scans against the site or whatever. they don't get much revenue from the users in these countries and so they don't care. access to the collective knowledge of humanity is always getting smaller in developing countries.
wow that's so shitty holy heck. i hope none of those websites are essential, or if they are that you find a free and working VNP
I think we can all agree, Nutsack is being falsely maligned.
Wow
You can check out any time you want.
But you can never leave.
Well I'm glad I've deleted all my Reddit account before chaos on there
Just send a GDPR deletion request. You can find ready made texts online. Just plug in your email/username and send it. Make sure to request a confirmation of the deletion.
Make a comment saying „Luigi is good“ or something like that, that should get rid of your Reddit account.
Try using the site?
Yey, that worked! Thanks man!
"Oh no. Our automatic door seems to have suffered a unfortunate malfunction while you were trying to leave the premises."
What happens when you click learn more?
I believe you're then obligated to deploy to Klendathu within 3 months.
But it's an ugly planet! A bug planet! I don't wanna!
You learn that reddit support is a shithole and when you eventually reach the faq for deleting your accout, reddit says 🖕
There was a browser add-on that removes or edits all your Reddit messages. Can't recall the name though.
This doesn't work anymore they shut down the api , if your in a gdpr country just enforce your right.
Hypothetically, if you live in ~~freedom~~ burger land could you use a VPN and claim gdpr enforcement? Or is there more to it?
The add-on, called “Nuke Reddit History,” no longer uses the API, just good ol’ fashioned JavaScript.
It takes a bit longer, but it does the job.
It works.

Whether it works on the back end and they'll restore your comments or not as a different story.
Yup I've heard of people doing this and then reddit just restores ..
I remember it using the API, which is supposedly disabled now. There are warnings on early Lemmy posts to use the tool before Reddit rolls out the changes.
Welcome to !reddit. This is a community for all news and discussions about Reddit.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rule 1- No brigading.
**You may not encourage brigading any communities or subreddits in any way. **
YSKs are about self-improvement on how to do things.
Rule 2- No illegal or NSFW or gore content.
**No illegal or NSFW or gore content. **
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.
