Do the advantages of deleting one’s entire Reddit history outweigh the disadvantages?

I have previously nuked my first Reddit account because it felt satisfactory to be completely detached from a platform one considers unethical/bad. Though, I have garnered quite some history on a second account—because Duty Calls*, of course—and I’m considering doing the same.

However, I don’t want to do it impulsively. I think I might be blind to some disadvantages. What do you think?

    That’s illegal within the EU.

    The GDPR also gives “right to be forgotten”.

      Mostly - it gets messy with content being posted though. They absolutely should be deleting all personal information about you.

      I am however unsure how this applies to posts and comments which don’t contain personal information.
