    Do I've to prove that the content I generated on a forum personally identifies me to have it removed or is GDPR protecting me from having to prove anything as long as the content I generated is mine?

    GDPR is only concerned with personal data - not with general content. So no- you cannot use GDPR as a premise to have all your content removed. If you have created specific content that is considered PII then then you can ask for that specific content to be removed or masked.

    Posting PII on a public forum is not clever.
