Agreed it is BS

A lot of folks get hit by this, https://kbin.social/m/RedditMigration/t/47320/PSA-If-you-have-more-than-1000-posts-more-than

They think they deleted it all, but stuff got missed.

A lot of folks also seem to be using PDS. Remember that PDS is also affected by this limitation.

This is one of the reasons I regularly deleted my reddit account. I was on reddit for over a decade, but I always had a relatively new account.

When I mentioned doing this, I invariably got called paranoid.

Smart move. Wish I had done this - but back then I didn't know how to automatically save a local copy of my content before deleting.

I did this too. The only time I regretted doing it was when I lost my snappening badge

That's what I did on a 6 month basis for 10 years.

I was keeping my account but deleted all my stuff every 6 months or so.
