good riddance
Honestly, even if Lemmy doesn’t grow to be even 1% of the size of Reddit, I think I could seriously enjoy the smaller-community vibe way more. Reddit was starting to get ridiculously flooded with trash content and bots.
Deleted mine yesterday after 12 1/2 years. Felt pretty good actually.
I don’t know, it felt kind of mixed to me. I definitely had some feeling of mourning as I was deleting 11 1/2 years of my personal content. The same feeling you might have throwing out childhood toys, or more accurately like old diaries. Nevertheless, I felt strongly that it was the right thing to do to delete all my comments. They’re backup up but it’s all in JSON so I don’t think I’ll revisit it again.
I deleted mine after 3 years. First i was skeptical if i was doing the right thing, but now i am happy i did it.
I don't think I'll completely abandon reddit after this, there's so many obscure ass communities I'm on that couldn't reasonably be rebuilt on here, but I'll certainly be putting more of my time here than in reddit.
Backed up and deleted all your posts and comments? Is there some sort-of simple way to do that, for people who're not programmers?
Use https://codepen.io/j0be/full/WMBWOW/
you can backup your stuff, modify your stuff before deleting and regular delete as well.
Thank you.
Many of the subs have gone private and I can't see any post or comment that I shared there on my profile. Would Power delete suite be able to get those? It seems that it can't, but asking here incase if there's some workaround.
Or would I have to wait for the blackout to end and the subs to become public(if they decide so)?
I think there is a way to do it, but redditors have been encountering problems accessing the feature necessary for this kind of deletion.
Deleted my alt, might delete my main also. Not realy attached to my account (it's old, came over with the digg wave)
