    Did you use a program to scrub that? I haven’t been on since June, but I wouldn’t mind twisting the knife a bit.

      Redact. I will say, I was on there over 11 years and it took almost 2 hours for it to wipe my comments

      Use ViolentMonkey/GreaseMonkey scripts in Firefox.

      It will rewrite your comments with gibberish, and then deletes them automatically. Just open your reddit account comments page, turn on the script, and watch, or walk away.

      Completely free.

      I still use RedReader on occasion on mobile, and then every few days turn the script on from my PC, and repeat as needed
