Note that it might take a while though, so if anyone wants to get this done before the 30th (so you can use API-based tools to wipe comments), request it ASAP.

I requested...maybe two weeks or so ago? And it only came through today. So get to it y'all

I used Power Delete Suite to overwrite my comments and posts via API, it includes an option to export everything from your account to a CSV before it takes any destructive actions, and it's super easy to use.

I was cool seeing years of comments get wiped. I could see why some people would purge their history every year even before the reddit controversy. It's cleansing in a way.
