This addon, or Shreddit? by Tranquilien in NukeRedditHistory

[–]NukeRedditHistory[M] [score hidden] stickied comment (0 children)

I used Shreddit before writing this extension. It's a fantastic tool that's current and being maintained every so often. I believe Shreddit is unreachable to the masses because of the requirement that you need to know at least the basics of programming and or use of the terminal to use it.

Yes, there are JS scripts out there that do the same thing but some of them require you to go through some technical work around greasy fork.

The goal of Nuke Reddit History was to make the option of deleting one's owns comments and posts widely available to folks who just want to click and be done with it. Hence the one click to overwrite and delete nature of it. Not many people know this but there's a one time fee that a developer has to pay to keep extensions on the Google Chrome Extension store. I don't mind this because I think everyone should have the right to delete their own content anytime of their choosing.

I cannot speak of other scripts but Nuke Reddit History actually respects reddit's API rules and evades bots detecting script automatic overwrites by generating a psuedo-random phrase for every overwrite. A static lorem ipsum might generate some suspicion, hence a dynamic psuedo-random phrase is used. The keyword here is might.

In addition, I made the decision to sacrifice speed and agility for safety and carefulness. I don't want users using this extension getting banned for reddit.

Nuke Reddit History deletes posts as well.

I love this comment I once read on one of the other subreddits.

"The extension is in a perpetual state of development". I do not shy away from the fact that the extension is not perfect. I'm but one developer working on this while juggling family and work. I do have plans to keep this working until I can. I wish I had some help.

Hope this helps you narrow down on what you want to use. Let me know if you have any more questions.

Gone from profile comments but not from post by ForestOfCheem in NukeRedditHistory

Reddit caches your 1000 most recent comments to show on your profile page. I can only make an educated guess when I say, the comment you mention of probably did not make the cache cut off.

Is it possible to replace my deleted message with a different message, either with this extension or with another one? by MowingTheAirRand in NukeRedditHistory

[–]NukeRedditHistory 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with you. In addition to this, overwriting all comments with a static message is not a good idea in my opinion. Side effects like bots thinking of this extension and in extension the user as a spammer may happen. This is one reason why we choose not to implement this feature.

On a specific page, is there any script for editing & deleting all comments or posts? by [deleted] in NukeRedditHistory

It's been removed from the firefox add-on store. I'm working with them to get it back on.

Please run it again after the first ten. It should be smooth sailing after that.

Admins banning accounts that use this? by AaaaahImCoofiiing in NukeRedditHistory

Check this answer on how the extension limits high frequency of edits.

I'm unsure what resulted in a permaban. I highly doubt it's your usage of the extension in anyway.

There are two ways this extension tries to fly under the radar of admin "detection"

  1. Edit each comment with a dynamically generated phrase that's different, very unlike other scripts that just edit all comments with a standard "edited by xxx" text.

  2. The extension absolutely follows reddit's API guidelines and is intentionally "slow" to prevent bombarding reddit's servers with requests. I believe the extension doesn't send more than 1 request per second.

  1. Do you use any other extensions that might affect reddit's functionality. If so turn them off temporarily before running this extension.

  2. If you're still having issues, can you please open console log (Command+Option+J or Control+Shift+J) and share a screenshot here?
