PowerDeleteSuite got 1495 of my comments. Double checked from multiple devices while logged out, it definitely worked
Same experience here with 2k+ comments processed, but I did use one of the forks that waits 5s between each edit/deletion to avoid getting rate-limited
Alternative to using a forked version is to use inbuilt browser dev tools to throttle the connection within a tab. In firefox eg: ctrl+shift+c -> network->throttling. That way it can't flood the server with requests.
BTW: where did you find the fork?
That sounds useful, built-in stuff is nice, although I don't know for what else I could use it lol anyway I didn't know about that, so thanks!
In the early days after people started noticing that some comments weren't being edited/deleted I stumbled upon a comment, don't remember whether on here on on Reddit, that suggested using this fork.
Here's the link https://github.com/pkolyvas/PowerDeleteSuite
Yes, because there will be older comments that aren't in your New list but are in the other lists. However, if you'd saved a link to one of your older Top comments, you'd probably find there are still replies of yours underneath with low but positive karma.
