As a PSA, remember that the API changes don’t only impact third party apps & accessibility tools, but also your ability to bulk delete or modify your Reddit history. If you intend to delete or modify your previous Reddit posts, be sure to run a tool like Power Delete Suite today before the shut down.
Also remember that as Subreddits went from private to public, there may have been posts and comments you attempted to delete but couldn’t until they went public again. So if you ran these tools, you might want to run it again to make sure you got everything.
NO API NEEDED
I used the “Spaz’s Reddit Delete” browser script through Greasemonkey to sanitize my account. No API needed. Now, if any of my comments or posts are a result of a Google search (I posted a lot on tech support type subs), they will lead to a dead link or to a [deleted].
PS: Deleting your account leaves your posts and comments behind, which in turn provide value to Reddit.
