1 main, 1 alt, and a throwaway. 5, 5 and 3 years, with 14K karma between them. I wasn’t a power user, but I wasn’t exactly casual.
I had some great conversations, I had a lot of fun, I met the woman I love on Reddit. But it’s clear that we’re not users to them, we’re just free content to be monetized so Reddit can boost their IPO. That doesn’t interest me.
Used Power Delete Suite to edit all my posts and then delete them. I’ll keep the accounts around until I’m sure u/spez or one of his minions don’t edit them back but I’m done. There’s no going back, only forward.
Feels good.
Did mine a few days ago. 2 accounts, 10+ years. I did the Nuke Reddit thing on the oldest account but gave up when I realised that it only does so many at a time and couldn’t see a way to expand it. That account was mostly comments etc.
Wish I’d realised that all I had to do was get myself banned 😉
With the second I used PowerDeleteSuite after a recommendation on here.
Then deleted both accounts. Quick and fast, like ripping off a plaster.
No regrets. This is a far nicer place, less drama, and friendly.
Hope I haven’t cursed it now though.
