If you live in Europe, please file a complaint with your local data protection authorities.

Which they will promptly ignore or stonewall with endless back & forth until you give up.

You talk to the governing body / regulator so that they talk to reddit and deal with the ignoring and stonewalling.

My argument is that the regulator itself is useless and will stonewall you.

Not to mention, even in a hypothetical world where the regulator actually did their job, Reddit can still ignore them as they have no EU-based presence to be fined.

Would it be possible tho? I always wondered wether GPDR applies to data posted publicly?

IANAL, but in my understanding the right to correction and deletion applies to publicly posted data as well.
