Hello Lemmy!

How do you recommend dealing with your old reddit account/ posts? Should I delete my old posts or just leave them there? Or maybe replace everything with the same text?

I heard that reddit might be restoring deleted posts. Would editing the post and then deleting it or just editing it be the better alternative to just deleting it?

I’ve seen the post that recommends doing all that BEFORE the API shutdown but now it’s after so I figured maybe something had changed about the tactics?

How did you go about it?

    Thanks for the hint. What does

    DROP_TABLE ALL

    mean?

    Also would you say random text that doesn’t make sense is better or just copy pasting a paragraph from somewhere? Or just a one liner like: “Moved to Lemmy.”?

      It’s an SQL command to delete the database named All. A lil programmer humor.

      Either is good but I personally want to use maximum allowed characters and maybe Shakespeare. The more bot-like and irrelevant the better
