Reddit Deletion Features

Mass Delete Reddit Posts and Comments by Subreddit

Target specific subreddits, or exclude the ones you want to keep. Add subreddit names to the deletion list and Redact only touches those communities. Add subreddits to the preserve list to leave them untouched - for example, wipe everything except your top contributions in r/AskHistorians.

Mass Delete Reddit Content by Date Range

Pick a start date, an end date, or a window between two dates, and Redact deletes only the posts, comments, and chats inside that range. Date filters apply per content type, so you can wipe last year's comments while keeping every post.

Mass Delete Reddit Posts and Comments by Keyword

Search post titles, post bodies, comment text, and chat messages for any word or phrase you want gone, and Redact removes every match. Add words to the preserve list - say, your own username - to keep matching content safe. Toggle on the offensive-content classifier and Redact will surface risky language across posts, comments, and chats automatically.

Filter Reddit Posts by Type, Flair, and NSFW Tag

Choose link posts, text posts, or both. Filter by flair keyword to wipe everything in a specific post category, for example every post flaired "Vent" or "NSFW Story." Toggle the NSFW-only switch to clear just your over-18 posts and leave the rest in place. Combine these with subreddit, date, or keyword filters for surgical cleanup, or run them on their own.

Mass Delete Reddit Posts and Comments by Karma

Set a maximum karma threshold and Redact removes only the posts or comments at or below it. Useful for clearing your most downvoted comments without touching your higher-scoring history, or for wiping anything that never gained traction. Works on posts and comments independently. Available on premium plans.

Mass Delete Reddit Chats and Direct Messages

Wipe your Reddit chat history in bulk. Pick specific channels from the chat selector, or run across every conversation you've joined. Filter by date range, by message type (text or media), or by keyword in the message body. Add a keyword preserve list to keep important conversations intact, and run the offensive-content classifier to surface risky messages first. Available on premium plans.

Import Your Reddit Data Package

Reddit's API doesn't expose every comment to third-party apps, especially older content. Upload your Reddit data export (the .zip from reddit.com/settings/data-request) into the Comments tab and Redact reads the contents directly so nothing slips through.

Mass Edit Reddit Posts and Comments to Beat Archive Bots

Reddit archive bots cache your content the moment you post it, so a plain delete still leaves your originals in those caches. Redact's Edit action replaces each post or comment body with a placeholder ("Removed with redact.dev" by default, or your own custom message on premium plans) so future scrapes capture the placeholder instead of your original words.

Delete Your Entire Reddit History

If you want a complete reset, skip the filters and run Redact across everything: posts, comments, and chats in one sweep. Turn on enhanced scan to also find posts and comments hidden from your profile by users who blocked you, at the cost of double the scan time. Pair with Scheduled Deletion or Disappearing Mode to keep your account permanently clean on a rolling basis. Mass deletion is irreversible, so preview first.
