    Make sure to use a fork of PowerDeleteSuite that respects the edit rate limit if you plan to edit your comments. Otherwise it will only actually get like 1/3 of them.

        I did actually try that, but it seemed to hit the limit on the same comments (which isn’t that surprising). A fork that respects the limit took most of the night to run, but seems to have been thorough.

          Any chance of a link to one of those forks that worked for you? I’ve been bashing my head against a wall trying to get any of the mass reddit comment deleters to work on all my comments, including the super old ones that don’t show up on my user profile page but are still accessible through search engines!

            I used gbf-dtb’s fork. It seems like they’ve updated it to be easier to install since then as well. I used it by manually updating the URL to grab the script from in j0be’s bookmarklet, but gbf-dtb appears to have re-linked to a codepen with a corrected one for easy installation now.
