I deleted my 12 year 100k account at 11:59p Friday night. Had redact edit every old comment then delete them and closed the account. Some of my Google searches are still landing me over there. I don't even know what it would take to put me there permanently, again. I'm just hoping I can cultivate my experience here, enough, so that I won't have to find out.

I noticed googling my reddit username still showed links to posts I deleted with my name in the Google description. Clicking showed it was deleted content with no videos/images left.

It's probably just cached. If you want to get fancy maybe a DMCA takedown notice will get it removed?

Same, I used to be StripedNinja on Reddit. Still see a bunch of Rocket League, Microsoft Excel, Guitar, and Mandolin posts when I google it.
