At least for EU residents, they are legally obliged to show what data they have on you and let you delete it. Should show well enough if they keep data for other non-EU people. At least if it turns out deleted content is still retained.
This only goes for personal data. The content you put on reddit is public.
Are you sure? Not saying you are wrong, I've just never heard about that or thought about it in those ways. Either way, in this scenarios it's not really public any more, is it?
I am pretty sure but I wouldn't insist on being right.^^
If you choose to delete a comment, you're choosing to make it no longer public.
