Asklemmy

I didn't delete my account, but my local community and I have switched to Discord and Lemmy. I think I'm now spending more time on these two services than on Reddit.

I haven't yet, but will do on the 30th (after running Redact) before Sync stops working. What I have done is requested my data, removed all the posts and customisation from the subs I moderate (r/fryup being the biggest at 30k users) and set them to private.

I've begun the process, requested my data from them and then afterwards i'll be nuking my account

I am going to wait until the blackout in two days I think. If reddit doesn't back down on their decision I am going to delete the app.

I plan to, and almost certainly will by the end of the month.
I'm sticking around just long enough to see how the blackout goes and to watch a bit of the resulting dumpster fire after tho.

RIP to RIF

I deleted my accounts every few years anyway

Not yet. I will do so by the end of June.

I’m waiting til after the blackout. Afterwords I’m pulling the plug.

Deleted my 14 year old account today.

I don't really want to delete content potential googlers could stumble upon and be helped by, but I've replaced the Relay shortcut on my homescreen with a Jerboa shortcut. That's as good as deleted cause that's all I access reddit through.

I think I'm still holding out hope that they will come to their senses, but I'll probably delete eventually.

I'm out. Nixed mine. Honestly I was never a huge power user so it's not too big a loss.

After six or seven years on Reddit, I finally deleted it and have removed it from my bookmarks. It's a little unusual trying to find communities for certain things I only used Reddit for, but I like it nonetheless.

I already deleted all my comments and posts and when the time comes and RIF is down I'll delete my whole account.

Just did it yesterday after realizing that the only real use Reddit got was bookmarking funny cats and doom scrolling. Twitter is next, just gotta save some "useful media" first

I'm not deleting, just abandoning. I had another person step up to mod the only community I was modding.

I deleted my 10 year old account and haven't looked back. It was all useless karma after all.

I've been lurking on regularly cycled usernames, so that was pretty easily done. I haven't deleted Slide yet, but since it'll stop working on 30th, that's a given. I'm going to try my best to help build up the niche communities like hardware focused ones on lemmy

I won't delete my account, atleast not in the foreseeable future. Won't install the official app though and stop using reddit on mobile entirely. There's just so much resources and old content available on reddit, and a lot that I've saved, that's next to impossible to migrate anywhere. I'll keep my account for that, and just that so I can access it when I need to.

I see no particular need to delete my account or any of its content, personally. I know it's everybody's own decision but frankly it strikes me as kind of needlessly destructive, like torching a restaurant because you no longer enjoy eating there. Other people still do, there's no reason to take it from them.

If Reddit evolves in such a way that I no longer find it useful or enjoy going there, I'll just stop. I'm actually happy if my old data remains useful to others - lots of times I go searching Google for information and wind up in an old Reddit thread, for example.

I used the power delete suite to get a backup of all my shit, change all comments to "bye reddit" and then delete them. I'm done with reddit unless spez is gone and they back track waaaay the fuck back

I've barely got any posts on there, so I've kind of just left my account for now. I'll purge it later on once I feel like all of my niche communities I need are elsewhere.

I however, do not visit it more than once a day now though, and I expect that frequency to drop-off (primarily for local level news right now - too small to expect them to migrate elsewhere for now)

I deleted the app but not my account. I thought about going back someday, but honestly I don't think I will. The last few days without reddits pessimistic view (at least how I see it) have actually been great.

Purged everything this morning bar for one last comment on the Apollo thread. Currently using kbin.social - exploring my options, but I wont be returning to Reddit.

I've deleted my comments and posts and find Reddit then restored them a few hours later.

So I've written some Python to delete them automatically and have it run on a schedule. Fuck 'em. A week later and Reddit are still restoring my data for the script to delete.

UPDATE: I pulled the plug

I've deleted all the posts in my 12 year account but I find it hard to nuke the whole account.

They sure aren't going to make any more money off of me though.

I'm kind of emotionally attached to my main and alt account to do that, yet.

I've deleted my 16 years worth of comments and post history. I now spend my time between here and Tildes, and just go back to reddit watch it burn.

My account is one I made for work related purposed and has ~140 karma with very little identifiable information about me. I won't delete it, but I'm no longer using Reddit as a time-waster. I'm diversifying and have signed up here, kbin, Mastodon and PixelFed.
