i dont know, i dont think so (without a user asking them to?). i think it would be less trouble for them to just create new accounts on their own. same result, but nobody can claim that their deleted account was restored. i think restoring deleted accounts could lead to legal trouble?
PSA: delete your account!
being banned is funny and stuff, but reddit can, has and will unban accounts to inflate their user count for their investors.
delete every account, post and comment if you can.
dont get banned, just delete your account. reddit is notorious in unbanning people to inflate their user count to investors.
Another comment in this thread you might already have seen by now:

And there were other instances mentioned in other threads as well.
Some problems are not tied to a platform, but to their users. Power hungry people try to grab power where they can. If they can’t be mod on reddit, they move to Lemmy. Here they can try to grow “their” space. If a topic already exists on one instance, they can move to another and shape the narrative and enforce rules how they like.
if that is your primary motivation, i have bad news for you… you might have to move on. here you will get bans for downvoting “the wrong” comment or post as well.
I believe so. Especially after reddit killing third party apps, were many tools created or advertised, like
https://github.com/j0be/PowerDeleteSuite
https://shreddit.com/
https://redact.dev/
(all were taken from i reddit comment that i don’t want to link to. you will find it yourself, but screw reddit!)
