When I was overwriting all my posts with the Power delete suite script, i got many error 503 errors
Btw, as it’s written in the fine print, if you delete your reddit account, all your posts and comments aren’t deleted and they will keep them forever with no option to delete them anymore
I did it not even half an hour ago and didn’t get any errors. I have only my main account left. One last account before I leave for good. I’m also new to that script/tool so maybe I made a mistake? But then again it’s pretty straightforward.
GDPR is wrapped around personal information specifically related to identifying someone. Well it’s possible to have posts that can demanded to be taken down by GDPR the vast majority of the stuff on Reddit is not applicable.
There’s a post on this link specifically talking about the part of the legal code that considers this

Need to overwrite before deleting
Even if you overwrite before deleting, I would assume reddit will keep the original message.
Yes but they can’t use it or show
Yeah they can

Don’t think that is compatible with GDPR, or?

I see, unfortunate
Can that script overwrite comments or posts older than the last 1000?
Yes. I used it to purge my history. 13 years worth of comments and posts gone in a few minutes.
Looks like, at the end the counter said it overwrote 3500 comments
