https://github.com/j0be/PowerDeleteSuite is a browser bookmarklet that will edit your comments and then delete them. I did this before deleting my Reddit account and it was fast and simple.
This worked well for me and it gave me a spreadsheet (.csv) of my posts and comments.
You just go to the linked page, drag the “button” up to your bookmarks bar. Then navigate to your reddit profile and click the bookmark let, select your options and “go” - then wait.
Mine took about 15 minute to scrub 10 years and about 2000 comments. It missed a few so I manually edited and then deleted those.
Take note… I’ve heard (anecdotally), if you want your history backup, do not interrupt the process or close the window.
Yeah it's so easy to use. Kudos to the dev(s).
