Reddit is actively restoring deleted comments and posts. Deleting your account won't make any useful difference. Instead:

  • Keep the account around but use some tool to delete all comments and posts everyday. I use Redact app on Android but there're many others. Reddit would not be restoring comments and posts if they are not useful to them. By keeping your profile and keep deleting everything, you are denying Reddit any chance from making use of your data.
  • Monitor when subreddit opens poll for re-opening and vote the "best" option.
you are viewing a single comment's thread
view the rest of the comments

At least the one i used, power delete suite, doesnt need API access, its a script run while youre logged in, they said if you can delete comments, it can delete comments.
