I ran into the profile limit so no more comments show up, but they are still on reddit with the csv file having links to the ones that haven't been deleted. There's too much for me to do it manually so would appreciate help if there's some tool to automate the process.
Have you gone into Reddit and setup the "script client" and got the client Id and the secret (if not I will have to create some screenshots next time I am on desktop)
In windows start bar type CMD to get a console window
Then set some environment variables (they will only last this session) use the example in the git repo or here (the first four you will need to edit for you details from.reddit as per above) and the gdpr directory (if you put these in a file and save it as .bat you can run it or just type one line at a time into the CMD window
Set SHREDDIT_USERNAME=your_username
Set SHREDDIT_PASSWORD=SuperSecretPassword123
Set SHREDDIT_CLIENT_ID=lk4j56lkj3lk4j5656
Set SHREDDIT_CLIENT_SECRET=kl2kj3KJ345lkhRAWE
Set SHREDDIT_DRY_RUN=false
Set SHREDDIT_THING_TYPES=posts,comments
Set SHREDDIT_BEFORE=2023-07-07T00:00:00Z
Set SHREDDIT_EDIT_ONLY=false
Set SHREDDIT_GDPR_EXPORT_DIR=c:\users[name]\Downloads\gdprunpack
Then In the same window drag the exe in so the command line will say "c:.....shreddit.exe" and press enter it will then run for 4s per comment so it will.take hours
Is there some script, addon or something that will take data from GDPR request and delete content, especially comments, one by one? redact had this capability, but it’s not working now
Just to add a couple of bits for windows users that the readme there doesn't cover
If you have the exe

How can I automate the process of deleting my remaining comments that scripts weren't able to delete by using the csv file received from my GDPR data request? (kbin.social)

Automated ways of removing reddit content?
