Same here. This morning I've removed my ten years worth of content from Reddit as I don't want them to even generate the slightest bit of revenue from it, removed my account and do not feel bad about it in the slightest.
I'm done with the way Reddit handles the community feedback and done with the "don't you dare to have a differing opinion or we'll downvote to oblivion" mentality that prevailed in a number of subreddits.
The latter is just human nature. You're not going to get away from that especially as lemmy grows ๐คท
Yeah, as much as people say they're meant to serve a different purpose, the upvote and downvote buttons will always serve as "I agree" and "I disagree" buttons.
I disagree! >:( downvotes
Yeah, guess that's true. But for now I'll just enjoy the more positive vibe I've picked up so far.
I deleted 15 years of comments last week. Nothing too valuable lost but it's definitely the end of an era. Looking forward to something new and not corporate owned.
what tool did you use to delete your comments?
I ended up using - ShreddiT , I decided nothing was really worth saving and I've been meaning to do it regardless.
Is there a fast way to delete comments? I found a nuke Reddit extension but only for chrome and it only did posts. I have a shit ton of comments out there still.
I used shreddit.com, you don't need a premium account to remove all your comments. You can just select 'all content' from the dropdown that allows you to select from which point in time you want to nuke your stuff.
I deleted one 11 year account and 3 three year accounts. The amount of absolute repeat garbage bots on all my homepage, and throughout popular was so bad, it just became Facebook, but angrier.
