Agreed. I deleted my 15 year account. Mods should just leave.
Reddit can’t exist without the free labor.
Other side is I don’t know what the mods that stick it out get. I’m guessing there is some monetary benefit to the bigger community mods I don’t know about.
It's too late for you, but I'd suggest anybody who wants to delete their account consider first editing all of their comments to overwrite the data, there are lots of reports of deleted comments being restored, I've not heard of reverted edits though. https://github.com/j0be/PowerDeleteSuite
I just tried Power Delete Suite about an hour ago. I beleive reddit has slowed down the allowable edit rate, something like one every 5 seconds. PDS runs through as fast as it can, meaning it's a 1 in 10 success at best. I tried Redact as well, but that just blanks out white after giving it permission. I'm not having much success. But Shreddit seems to work OK? Though that doesn't address the undeletion possobility
use the PDS fork with the 5 second delay. it'll take forever but it'll get the job done!
