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?
Try using the site?
Yey, that worked! Thanks man!
Don’t delete your account. There are browser plugins that will edit all your posts to nonsense to fuck up AI models. Be a burden.
They reverted mine before. It’s Reddit, if they don’t have backups or methods to detect mass edits or deletions, I’d be shocked.
But the reversion sets them back and requires resources
preserving your data is more valuable for them than the time spent rewinding your account back half an hour.
hell, they might even have it as an automated script that fires off after it detects to many post edits from your account or something.
Shit. I would have done this.
So when I deleted my account a few years back, i hade a Firefox script delete all my posts and comments.
Then i created a ticket for support asking to apply my right to be forgotten, according tomy GDPR rights and also a written confirmation that my content would not be recreated after deletion.
They will play hard but just say that you then will need their official information such as conpony name, adress, phone number, email, reg number and preferred communication method for your local data authority to contact them.
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
what small country is that? I’ve never heard of this
“Oh no. Our automatic door seems to have suffered a unfortunate malfunction while you were trying to leave the premises.”
Try the website, old.reddit.com in particular.
Go on there and state that you believe that Nazis should be punched. They’ll ban your account.
Make sure you go back and delete every comment or posting first.
Doesn’t matter don’t do it.
A few months back someone posted that they found all of their deleted posts from when the great migration to Lemmy happened. And I checked myself that day and found that a large portion of my posts that I had deleted were restored. And I had verified the day that I had left Reddit that my posts were gone. There was no history on my account. And if I look right now those posts exist again.
I recommend using a tool to scramble all of your comments, waiting a while, and then deleting. Check back every few days to verify deletion before ultimately closing your account. For some reason, if a subreddit is hidden or closed, you can delete your messages from there until it’s reopened.
I spent about 2 weeks deleting my accounts from reddit during the mobile app exodus.
yep, looks like mine are back as well. wow.
Looks like an OS native dialog, which makes me think this is the app? Have you tried doing it directly on the website instead?
You could try posting pro-mangione stuff Or just harden your browser
Just get banned. It’s pretty easy nowadays.
Yeah, there’s a simple code for it, you just have to type “Luigi spez” and they’ll handle this for you.
No that won’t work.
Most likely OP has been shadowbanned so they cannot comment.
Having the same problem with Twitter account lol got banned 2023 for being nafo embassador but now can’t delete the account somehow.

Just stop going there. Delete the app, delete the bookmark, and move on with your life.
Yeah I deleted the app and the shortcut on the top of my browser and I dont get the urge anymore
I stopped browsing on my phone during the API debacle, I’d check in on my computer every so often, then I got sick of all the Reddit-ness of everything, deleted the bookmark, and haven’t been back.
See if you can sell it then lol
56k + karma up for grabs hit me … where’s that polish chick with the dab rig
They won’t let me kill my account either
Try from desktop. It worked for me.
