I have got my privacy report in CSV form and have about 40k comments each with the id parent Id and permalink. Is there a way to parse this to delete script. I know shreddit does it for $15 premium but looking for free options

Recommend giving https://github.com/andrewbanchich/shreddit a try - it supports using the GDPR archive out of the box, no code changes required.

I recently got my export from Reddit and did exactly this. It took shreddit the better part of two days to delete all 18000-odd of my comments.

Thanks for that. It seems to be working for me. I just set it to work on my 12 year old, 13000 comment history.

Thanks I think I can work with that. I didn't realise there was an open fork of shreddit. I was just thinking of shreddit.com
