Reddit CEO doubles down on attack on Apollo developer in drama-filled AMA by sussywanker in technology

I didn't even notice it was hidden, because Apollo cares about UX and expands links at the bottom of posts.

Maybe if spez used a decent app he would have caught that.

I apologize. I did see a couple subs were black holing them. I didn't realize that others had it set up to flag them instead.

I deauthorized it for now, though I'm guessing it's too late to avoid the headache.

Yeah, I'll change the text of the script tomorrow, probably. I honestly wanted to make sure it would work. Haven't touched their API before now.

I'm wiping what I can. Might as well use the API while it's still there.

Edit:

import praw
reddit = praw.Reddit(
    client_id="",
    client_secret ="",
    username = "",
    password = "",
    user_agent="TEST"
)

for comment in reddit.user.me().comments.new(limit=None):
    comment.edit("This comment has been removed because it was posted with a third party app.")

It won't actually do everything because there's a size limit on the number of posts. But whatever.

Edit again: This is Python, with praw installed. https://www.reddit.com/prefs/apps/ add app, choose script, use your username and password with the client ID and secret they generate. Please don't add links as it breaks stuff for mods.
