I enjoy deleting my old posts and comments, but it’s lot of work doing it individually, especially with comments. For other platforms there are apps you can login with, then delete old or all content, but I can’t find one for Lemmy. Does such a thing even exist?

    This might be tricky, given that Lemmy is federated [1]; there’s no guarantee that deletions will be federated to all instances — eg an instance could defederate from the rest of the network after your content’s been pushed to it.
