  just say something that will you get you banned and they will delete all your comments and posts and your profile. they will appear as [deleted]. much easier tbh

    they will appear as deleted, but they are not really deleted, they still have them in the database and still make money selling them 🤷‍♂️

      would redact solve this?

      make sense if reddit is a AI whore, and wants the money, what better way to have extra content from delete comments.

    I do wonder how much they soft delete stuff, so they can keep the data to sell. Also if they keto a history, do even if you manually delete/edit, do they have a copy on a server somewhere?

      Not sure about edits, but its highly likely they still have every deleted post. Text is small and highly compressible, so there’s no reason to delete it. So it makes more sense to keep it to sell later.
