Having worked at a company that had a massive influx of GDPR requests we weren’t prepared for, this one could actually cause them some trouble if Reddit don’t have that process properly automated.

They do not have it automated. I put in a request 2 weeks ago and still haven’t heard back.

    When can you complain about the slow response?

    I would not at all be surprised if the GDPR dictates a set time period to respond backed up by fines.

    the GDPR gives them 30 days to honor your request I think?

    Yeah it’s 30 days, though they can push it up to 90 if they have a good reason. They have to inform you of that though.

    Yeah same. They might be holding back until the last minute deliberately in some 4D chess move, but like you I think it’s more likely some poor soul is preparing them manually.
