I just ran Power Delete Suite on all of my comments and self posts, stating they have been removed in protest.

On July 1st, I am deleting every comment and post, then closing my account. Reddit was fun while it lasted.

The fediverse is still raw, but I see massive protentional here, and I am ready for this journey with all of you.

I've already ran it, it went very smooth for a similarly aged account. 12 years with >100,000 comment karma and probably 8,000ish comments.

Not quite as big but I nuked 8 years and 25k. I'm doing my part!

Just found out it was my cake day today, was planning on deleting everything on the 30th but it would be funny if i did it on the 6th year of my account

I used PowerDelete to replace my comments with Random Garbage, but it looks like only about 10% of comments actually got edited.

Wish I knew about shreddit or equivalents before checking out. Deleted my account, but years and years and thousands of karma worth of helpful content remains. Nowhere near as much as some of you guys -- but still years of thought and interaction and appreciated memes.

Much of the content I followed on reddit is now being posted in the fediverse as well. I'm very hopeful. Either way, not returning to Reddit no matter what. They are Digg to me.

Same, 15+ years, although I don't yet have a plan to delete my account. There may arise a need to leverage it in some other protestful way.

Like selling the account to a spammer lol

Hypothetically, if there were a market for 12yr old reddit accounts, where would something like that be? So I can make sure to never go there, being the owner of a 12yr old reddit account myself.

As someone with a 10 year old account myself I would also like to know where and who to avoid.
