Welcome to !reddit. This is a community for all news and discussions about Reddit.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rule 1- No brigading.
**You may not encourage brigading any communities or subreddits in any way. **
YSKs are about self-improvement on how to do things.
Rule 2- No illegal or NSFW or gore content.
**No illegal or NSFW or gore content. **
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
:::spoiler Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.
I might have to look more into my state's right to be forgotten law. I used PDS for about 2 weeks until no more zombie posts were in my profile (most resurrected by the opening of closed subs). I was cleaning out some gaming book marks and clicked on a reddit thread I'd kept and, lo and behold, I found myself in the comments. Except I'd purged all of those. And searching for myself yields no results. This is...disappointing.
Ugh, that's extremely disappointing. I've got thousands of comments coming up on Google all the way back to 2009 that don't show up on Reddit searches or my profile anymore. I wonder if there's an automated way I can edit and then delete these.
There’s a premium service called Shreddit that will take your GDPR request files and delete them for you.
YSK though that your top results in Google are also likely to be the top traffic to Reddit. So deleting top down will remove those traffic sources to Reddit.
My top 5 results a month ago were also the posts that were driving questions via PM years later.
I didn’t pay to delete mine. I didn’t have as much as you guys to worry about. Maybe 400 or so. Every couple years I created new accounts. I lucked out because of it.
Likewise - 11,500 hits on google
Remember Google still knows of your deleted content if you just did your account wipe. Those will take a few weeks to not show up.
