Honestly, I hope the UI adds a built-in option to hide upvotes and downvotes (seeing the vote totals and having the up and down arrows visible to click on). I know there are pros and cons of reputation systems, but I think that's why it makes sense for each user to decide whether or not they want to be aware of that stuff. I've always been pretty disturbed by the 'popularity contest' nature of social media, and think that for myself, the slight mental health hit of paying attention to my reputation and the up/down votes of every comment is something I'd rather avoid, at least much of the time.
I'm aware that there are some scripts or some such that can do this, but I'm not extra tech savvy, and many people are less tech savvy than me, so having a simple setting would be great.
Having said that, it's great that the latest revision to the system went live. It now seems a lot more intuitive.
I've been in a few for various reasons. There's one where they choose a few redditors at random and you get 7 days to talk amongst yourselves, after that you are banned from the sub forever. That was amusing. Kinda gutting when you get the ban notification.
If you met someone who you really enjoyed talking to, what would stop you from staying connected to that person after the 7 days were over? You would know their username, right?
You absolutely could, but that feels weird after you've kinda just met. It's not like having a one to one chat with people, I think there was like 15 or 20 people?
Yeah, RedReader is one of the apps that had an accessibility exemption due to it being so good with its accessibility features. The official Reddit app doesn't have those features, so Reddit knew they would get sued if they didn't allow some 3rd party apps to fill in that need.
I think it’s untested whether this is legal or not; it’s in a legal grey zone. Try to find an online script to help you delete all your posts. Alternatively turn the question to your national agency which handles GDPR compliance.
With the API shutting down, I believe there is no longer an automated way to delete all content. I would focus more attention on the latter suggestion.

Actually, the API hasn't shut down. It's just you get a bill if you go over 100 api calls per minute, but existing scripts like github shreddit can be easily modified to include a builtin delay to prevent that from happening. Alternatively you can pay shreddit.com $15 to do this for you and not worry about it (they use their own API key i figure though I don't know the specifics, but I imagine they have a setup that prevents them from going over the limit as well).
