This is the wrong answer.
Right answer: You can go to [1] and [2] and [3] and ask them to delete your information. It's important to retain a copy in writing that they have removed your information. If a copy is ever found online (in a data breach or otherwise) you would be able to enact legal rights as a result of their GDPR breach. I would encourage people who upload data to leave "fingerprints" in their accounts, such as certain photos, emails, and other data that you have ONLY created on this service (for example, email your own gmail account a unique email, if it's ever leaked, you know where it came from).
It's the same way Spotify's GDPR tool does NOT give you all the information they store, yet if you ask via their DPO (usually privacy@) you get a lot more data, rather sneaky way of hiding their true data collection.
ALWAYS use email or a physical letter, ALWAYS get a reply by the organization when enacting your GDPR rights, your lawyer/legal authority will be very thankful ;)
AND NEVER EVER USE AUTOMATED TOOLS! The chances are, there is data that isn't included within them. For example, go ahead right this second and submit a SAR for "technical log information" to Google, this data is NOT included in their official tools and you will be amazed how much they're storing!!
