Mine was 8 years old and I haven't touched it since the protests started

I deleted mine after that disastrous AMA that the head spaz put on. What a shit show.

I'm not planning on deleting mine, I do have some good technical answers on my account that I don't want to delete. I figure stopping participating is more important than going back and deleting it.

This is a fair point - engagement drives their dollars. Maybe I'll save what's useful for me on my account as long as I can find no alternatives or don't have time to migrate solutions to another silo. Just having not opened their site in 2 weeks already feels compellingly free.

10 years for me and not been on the weekend before the protest and have no plans to return anytime soon. But when I do it will be to gain as much that I saved as I can and then nuke my account from there. And I have 150k in karma. Doesn't seem like much but took me a long time to earn that and I was proud of it. But when RIF goes I am gone.

Long live Lemmy, long live the fedverse.
