Absolute bullshit.
I deleted all of my posts and comments individually and they were all restored. Twice!
Third time was the charm though. Rather than deleting comments I overwrote them with “Fuck u/spez” and that stuck.
I made multuple attempts to delete my reddit history, using multiple tools. The history kept popping back up.
Many people told me that the problem had something to do with the blackout. Something about history reappearing when private subs return to public. This explanation was total bullshit, there was zero connection between the blackouts and the reappearance of my deleted history.
I finally ran a delete which seems to have stuck. I haven’t deleted my account just in cass.
I ran Power Delete Suite several times over a week and saved all the CSVs of exported comments, and my Reddit data request returned hundreds more comments than PDS found. e.g. PDS found 8 comments in my local subreddit and response to my data request had over a hundred comments from there.

Wish i though of that before i deleted my account.
Is it only possible to do it manually? I have thousands of comments/posts :(
