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.
I did power delete suite and replaced all my comments before deletion. I searched for my name and only one best of comment came up, the rest came up as lemmy comments.
I saw mine in Google but clicking into Reddit the comments were deleted. One of my posts from 9 years ago seems to still be up if I search by my name on Google but when I click it then my name is deleted as are my replies in the post.
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.
