Bulk delete your Reddit history, safely
SafeShred for Reddit is a Chrome extension that deletes your own comments and posts in bulk, and checks afterwards that they are really gone. It works on today’s reddit.com, without old.reddit.
Coming soon to the Chrome Web Store
Free: preview, backup and up to 50 deletions per day. Unlimited: $9.99 one-time (no subscription), with a 14-day no-questions refund.
Why SafeShred
Verified deletion
After deleting, it re-reads every item and deletes again anything reddit still shows.
Beyond 1,000 items
Walks every sort order, and imports your official reddit data export to reach older history.
Look before you delete
Dry run with filters by date, subreddit, score and keywords, plus a keep-list.
Backup first
Saves everything as JSON or CSV on your computer before anything is deleted.
Overwrite, then delete
Optionally replaces the text with random, ad-free words before deleting.
Respects rate limits
Paces itself to reddit’s limits, shows time left, and resumes after interruptions. Expect roughly 300 items per hour, so a history of several thousand items takes most of a day. Keep the tab open; you can use other tabs meanwhile.
Privacy
Everything runs in your own browser with your own reddit login. Your reddit data is never sent to us. See the privacy policy.
Good to know
SafeShred works with reddit as it is at the time of purchase. Reddit can change its site at any time, so continued operation can’t be guaranteed. If it stops working and can’t be fixed, sales stop and recent buyers are refunded. Deletion cannot be undone. Automated actions may carry some risk to your account; SafeShred uses a conservative pace to keep that low.
