About six months back I requested my data dump just out of curiosity, to see what it had about me. Even though the form says "allow up to 30 days" it came to me almost immediately, I seem to recall it was just a matter of hours.
About a week ago I requested another data dump, this one to be my nostalgic "that was my Reddit career I guess" archive. It still hasn't come through. Either their systems are genuinely so poor that they're being overwhelmed and can't generate all those data dumps being requested now, or more likely they're stalling in an effort to prevent exactly this sort of activity.
Sadly I expect that we will all get them within that 30 day window - on day 39, after the new api pricing breaks these tools.
