Hijacking the top comment to say: PowerDeleteSuite doesn't get everything. It can only see what's in your reddit profile under New, Top, Hot & Controversial - there will be numerous posts that are too old with only 1 or a few karma that aren't displayed in these lists. In particular, if you go through your top posts of all time, you might find some replies to these posts that you made that the script did not see.

The GDPR archive gives a full list of all the comments. What we need is a FOSS script that can use these csv files to get everything. Apparently Shreddit can take the csv files, however you have to pay $15 to use this feature.

Usually tickling his feet makes him release.

How about letting redditors vote that CEOs shouldn't get a golden parachute?

How about shareholders sacking a paedophile CEO for gross misconduct with no golden parachute?

One can only dream.

Hah full blown aggression, I hope you're paid per ascii character.

Pick a lane.

I've told you my lane. My heels are in the sand, and I call out bullshit wherever I see it. You're just so far on one side you can't acknowledge that I'm on your side with some things.

You said I haven’t given any detail and that I linked you detailed articles explaining things.

I summarised this:

So, your argument is that people arguing in the 1990s that expansion of NATO was a bad idea (because said expansion would encourage Russia into hostile actions) is justification for Russia to enact said hostile actions in 2014 and 2021?

That was basically what your handful of links from Western scholars said.

In saying that, I was far more specific than you have been. If you wish to challenge me on any particular point, I welcome that, particularly as these are points you're supposed to be presenting.

Please, give me a specific point to mull over. So far it's been either generic or diverting.

The west is likewise trying to force a decision in their own favor. The fact is that Minsk agreements were created between the west, Russia, and Ukraine in order to avoid the current scenario.

Yes, the Minsk agreements were created to avoid Russia invading more of Ukraine. Russia invaded Ukraine in 2014, the rest of the world wanted them to stop, now Russia is continuing their invasion.

Nevermind the fact that the agreement basically broke down completely in 2015, well before Russia mobilised in 2022.

And once again, the moralizing regarding whether something is justified or not is completely beside the point. That doesn’t actually solve anything and it’s not in any way productive. It’s just a way to make yourself feel righteous.

You're trying to make out that Russia's invasion of Ukraine is some sort of forgone conclusion. It wasn't. It was an active decision to invade and kill people.

What all this comes down to is that since the west and Russia can’t come to a diplomatic agreement this will be decided in a hot war. Currently, this war is contained in Ukraine, however it can easily turn into a world war and then into a nuclear holocaust. If you think that’s a good path to follow then by all means keep drumming up continued escalations.

And there we have it, full blown threats. If Russia can't get its way, if Russia can't claim the territory it wants, nukes will fly.

I am accutely aware of the threat of nukes, far more than you know. That won't discourage me from calling out bullshit regardless.

Wait did sh.itjust.works do anything? I thought the story was that beehaw.org cut them and lemmy.world off, but only for people browsing on beehaw.

Make an account in another instance, there are lots of them.

Honestly I kind of wonder if this is all some kind of coordinated power grab to crack down on public spaces in the build up to 2024 elections.

Power Delete Suite doesn't get everything. PDS goes through your New, Hot, Top & Controversial posts and deletes those - however your reddit profile doesn't display every comment there.

For example, I had many comments that were older than 3 months and <50 karma that were still left unchanged after running PDS to completion several times. In particular, replies I'd made to my top comments were still there, while the top comment itself had been deleted. I also had a couple comments in the gilded tab that it had missed.

The only way to get everything is to do a GDPR request to get all the comments with links in a CSV file. Apparently shreddit can take this to clear the comments, however the PDS dev shits on shreddit for requiring you to input your username and password. I haven't yet tried this, but I'm not aware of any other service that uses the GDPR CSV files.

We could use alternatives, but Lemmy is the best!

"Use our service because we plant trees!" is really just marketing bullshit. They're not saving the environment, they're running a monoculture tree farm which creates long term profit.

Saying that though I switched to Ecosia from DDG because it just formats the results better imo. It would be nice if Firefox at least included it in the default search engine list so you didn't have to hunt around to add it.

Yeah I agree, but the trouble is you can't just download from github. You have to also download YouTube from google (and a specific older version at that) and then use ReVanced to modify - and that's if it even works for you. This creates a barrier to entry that many people just won't bother with.

TL;DW?
