How to delete all reddit comments before deleting your account (Chrome)

If you’d like to sanitize your account before deleting it I use this method. I use chrome on W10 and I’m not sure if it works with other browsers or OS.

  • ctrl+shift+J
  • then copy and paste:

var $domNodeToIterateOver = $(‘.del-button .option .yes’), currentTime = 0, timeInterval = 1500;

$domNodeToIterateOver.each(function() {

var _this = $(this); currentTime = currentTime + timeInterval;

setTimeout(function() { _this.click(); }, currentTime); });

To make this work you’ll need to be using RES on desktop. Go to your profile and load up all your comments and submissions, I just hold down spacebar until everything is loaded. Once that’s done I do the above command and the comments/submissions get deleted one by one.

EDIT: Looks like there’s easier/faster ways to do this so go with what works for you.
