lemmy_monkey VS shreddit

Lemmy Monkey

Have you tried customizing the compact layout to look like old.reddit?

Just recently someone made a GreaseMonkey script that changes the frontend to look more old.reddit like. Usability features will come as fast as people can contribute the spare time and effort to add it in.

You can install an old.reddit lookalike theme using either of these two userscripts: https://github.com/soundjester/lemmy_monkey/tree/main. IMO the compact theme looks better than old.reddit.

I am glad I trashed my reddit posts/comments before deleting accounts with shreddit [0].

After you get your GDPR file from Reddit (takes a cpl of weeks) via [ https://www.reddit.com/settings/data-request ] I would highly suggest visiting the rust version of shreddit [ https://github.com/andrewbanchich/shreddit ] and pointing it at your GDPR data to fully delete it from Reddits servers. Normal deletes only delete the last 1000 entries, your post and comment history will look empty but if you do a Google search [ site:reddit.com ] you'll find old entries that weren't covered by that (they will appear in your GDPR data).

For example: https://github.com/andrewbanchich/shreddit

another tool also named shreddit (not shreddit.com) uses the GDPR file - https://github.com/andrewbanchich/shreddit

You should do a GDPR request from reddit. Within a week or so they should send you a .cvs file containing all your data, including links to all your comments. After that arrives, run it through the Rust fork of Shreddit, which can edit and/or delete ALL your stuff in one go.

Since when does Shreddit cost money? The source code is up on Github with full releases. So weird to make things up about this.
