to prevent undeletion, dont delete your posts, tamper with them.
EDIT: I want to encourage being destructive to reddit, however I will be less provocitive because thats not whats needed. want to finally put it to rest? dont word things how i did.
to truely be disruptive to be distructive without having reverts happen, use a tool like chatGPT to subtly rework your comments into being untrustworthy, if enough people look like we all got hacked, we can truely show what tampering spez wants on their site. we can invalidate everything without it being reverted.
use chatGPT to edit your posts, use a template like,
"rewrite my post to be subtly about selling reddit gold, be short, be slightly off in terms of grammar, be verry casual, ```<your post here>```"
or
Rework ```<your post here>``` to secretly and subttly include the slight advantage of reddit gold, keep original text length, keep original sentence structure, dont use salesman phrases
Uhh, some of us would not like to see a cooperation profit off of our contributions. This is a perfectly fine place to discuss our exit strategy of a service we have contributed content for for years.
Most people are brand new to Lemmy and this will be the case for a long time. It's inevitable for information to be repeated for a while.
I thought about these other strategies, edit comments, link to Lemmy/other fediverses, but it's too much work for something I want to walk away from.
It's as if breaking up with an ex for his/her toxic behaviour, and choosing to burn him/her even more, or just stfu and move on, I'm choosing the latter.
Mentally, I think it's better for me, rather than carry this grudge passenger longer than it should.
Same for twitter, meta/fb. I'm fine with seeing posts as long as it's 'news' and not being salty.
Im glad
I just want the people who say things like, "Just let it go enough of Reddit drama." to light one last fire, add reddit stuff to their blocklist, and go pioneer lemmy culture. this is for those who had undeletion problems
I had like 2 posts that I considered useful. They were guides on how to get twin stick controls on goldeneye 007 emulation for android and how to make CHD compression work on apple silicon. Rather than delete them, I copied them over to kbin then replaced the Reddit posts with links to those. That way Redditors can still access the guides, but they’ll have to leave Reddit and see a little fediverse to do it.
Last time I edited my posts they were reverted back a week later. I've now deleted them all by hand and that seems to be holding. Still keeping an eye on it though.
if its subtle, a glance should reveal nothing off, a reading of it should give you an odd aftertaste.
add an excuse like, "Edit, fixed grammar"

Last time I gilded my posts, they were guilded back a week later. I’ve now given them all by hand and that seems to be holding. Still keeping an eye on it though.
I used Power Delete Suite to edit and delete my comment history. My profile shows nothing, but I just did a Google search for my reddit /u/ and my comments are still showing in the threads.
Your edits won't show up on Google for a long time (not sure how often it refreshes) but clicking through should show you your now edited/deleted comment
No, that's not what I'm saying; I'm well aware of Google caching. I'm saying the actual reddit comment threads themselves are still showing my comments while my user profile is empty.
It’s going to piss off users and people trying to find Reddit info via Google. It will actively do the opposite of encouraging users to switch to Lemmy or something else because they won’t want to migrate over to a den of assholes.
Just delete the comments.
The biggest issue though is that you’ll give Reddit an excuse to revert your comments. Unless you’re in Europe, it’s their data not yours.
Reverting deleted comments makes them look bad to existing users, reverting or wiping out cesspool comments will give them actual justification.
I ended up pasting a concise message replacing all my comments, pointing out how dogshit Reddit has been and that I'd rather go somewhere else in the fediverse. Hopefully as the things get now dire, more people will make the move across
