👿 PSA: #Reddit is restoring deleted and overwritten posts to save what they consider "their data". This is a new low and probably illegal at least in Europe. You can send a GDPR or CPRA request here: https://www.reddit.com/settings/data-request
These are screenshots of my profile on June 14th before and after overwriting and then deleting all my posts with Powerdelete. Today, June 16th all my posts have been restored by Reddit without my knowledge or consent.

I just logged in and checked my reddit account, and all my deleted posts have come back.
The throttling is new. They may be doing that to discourage people scrubbing their accounts, though it could also be a load issue since a lot of people have been doing.
When I did it last weekend it seemed to work fine. I had to run it a couple of times, and it took a while, but in the end it seemed to get everything.
What script are you using to mass edit? Even if they revert it, I would like to try.
I used PowerDeleteSuite to edit and delete. You can configure it to just edit if you want.
Edits seem to be throttled to one every 5 seconds. I ran powerdeletesuite several times and it got most of my comments, but still not all.
