reddit data retrieval thoughts

When I first started the timeline thread for reddit GDPR/CCPA requests, https://kbin.social/m/RedditMigration/t/50981/Reddit-Data-Retrieval-Request-timeline-thread it seemed virtually no one got theirs.

Now, 11 out of 15 have received it. I even got mine via email, despite being permabanned and then deleting my account afterwards. Also, they are really pushing it, but so far no one seems to have gone over the deadline.

I do note that I seem to have gotten mine later than some others who put in requests later than I but got theirs earlier. In my case they were just one day shy of 30 days - but I did a request under 'Other' rather than GDPR or CCPA.

Hopefully this provides hope for others who want to grab their archive from reddit.

I got mine yesterday after exactly 18 days. 12 years worth of account history, so I just deleted my account this morning (it's Tuesday afternoon where I'm at).

Did you wipe your post history first?

Even better, I overwrote everything with a message highlighting the antisocial behavior of reddit inc., and left a link to my account here.

Even better!
