I’ve been using Power Delete Suite for years. It runs as a browser bookmark, so doesn’t need API, etc. I’ve got it deleting everything older than 3 months each time I run it.

They keep a history of all your comments and edits. Deleting them will work for the companies that are scraping it for free though, but it also brings up the value of Reddit’s private database.
