I did the same a week ago, deleting fifteen years worth and several thousand comments using Shreddit, by editing and deleting, however mine have not been restored, so I doubt this was some kind of broad action.

I very much doubt Reddit cares at all about the small number of us that have done this.

Me too… note that Shreddit first edits the comment, and then, deletes it.

Not sure if this would complicate a restore process by Reddit.

Apparently not. I deleted my comments with shreddit, editing first, and at least a large portion of them appear to have been restored to their original text.
