    When I stopped using reddit a few years ago, I left my account intact because I had 18 years of posts that included a lot of tech help and other useful information that I figured people might stumble across.

    Last night, I used Redact to scramble all 5,521 comments.

      I envy you. I was a little too outspoken which led to my account being banned, and now I can’t do anything about my existing trove of data I foolishly created for them

      I’ve soon been on here for 3 years now and made almost 11,700 comments in that time (which I personally find must be a miscount somehow, that sounds insane). So anyway, I was on Reddit for over 11 years. Extrapolating these numbers kind of boggles my mind a bit.

    I only access Reddit (and Lemmy) through RSS so when they nuke that in two weeks, I’ll be gone, too.

      My RSS feed already stopped sending me Reddit posts. Last ones were about 17 days ago. Ridiculous.

    There’s only one social media site that’s still the same as it was a decade ago. The only problem is that it was never good.

    Reddit is a haven for spam, rife with bots and scammers, and it often hands over control to fraudsters.
