Hi, I recently moved to Lemmy and don’t want Reddit to make any more money with my data.

I live in the EU, so I should have the right to demand deletion of all of my data according to the GDPR, right?

Did anyone write them an email or letter to request data deletion? And how did you write it?

      They (sometimes, from what I understand) claim that they cannot delete your commemt or post history, and will offer to delete your account while retaining the data.

      I hear some had success with it, but then Reddit got overwhelmed and stopped responding to it.
