This was a really hard decision for me but I purged all my posts, votes and comments via Shreddit. I then deleted all my accounts. I’ve been on Reddit since it was just a baby website. I love Reddit, the friends and the communities I was involved in changed my life for the better.
We’ll see how it goes but the only way we are going to win this fight is to walk away from Reddit. We have to send a message to them and the only way to do that is to hit them where it really hurts, right in the wallet.
Change is a good thing and I am ready to embrace it. I’m all in on kbin now. Let’s see where we go from here 🍻
Can you provide a link to the “noise” memo that was leaked? I must’ve missed it because I haven’t heard of this. If it convinced you and was the final straw to delete your account, I’d be interested in seeing it as well
I’m more set on overriding all my comments, but I’m still on the fence about deleting the whole account. At least, once I know with 100% certainty that they won’t be reverted back to their original states (if possible)
