How can I automate the process of deleting my remaining comments that scripts weren't able to delete by using the csv file received from my GDPR data request? (kbin.social)

I ran into the profile limit so no more comments show up, but they are still on reddit with the csv file having links to the ones that haven't been deleted. There's too much for me to do it manually so would appreciate help if there's some tool to automate the process.

Recommend giving https://github.com/andrewbanchich/shreddit a try - it supports using the GDPR archive out of the box, no code changes required.

Thank you for the link. Any guides to making this work? I'm a bit confused because I downloaded the exe, but it won't run so I'm not sure what to do, even after reading the directions on the github.

Not sure what "won't run" means, but the first thing I'd double-check is your shreddit.env file. You might need to put single quotes around your password, etc., and I'd also look at the pathname of the directory where your GDPR files are to be sure that's correct.
