Title. I plan on deleting my account soon but want all my comments to point people to lemmy. I know there are several ways to do so but I can’t remember what they are. I did a search here before posting but nothing related came up.
I’m planning on changing my comments to something like:
Edit: Moved to Lemmy
but is there something better I can say?
That’s funny timing someone just linkedhows somewhere else
Here’s a link
I’ve done something similar using the Violent Monkey extension for Firefox, RES (to load all of my comments on a single page), and a script I found on Greasy Fork. That script was supposed to replace comments with gibberish, THEN delete everything, but I hacked the deletion part away and changed the gibberish edit for a custom text. Let me try and fix it so I can share it with you (unless someone with a better solution shows up).
I used power delete suite. It also let’s you save a copy of all the original comments with their permalinks in a CSV.

You may need to run it more than once. I think due to rate limiting from reddit for many edits like this.
