I'm just about ready to delete mine.
Went through today and used a program to edit all my comments then delete them, deleted all my post as well.
Once I can figure out how to easily export out all my Saved post then I'm out completely
I'm considering this, as well.
Reddits handling of the charges rollout and dev communication has left a bad taste in my mouth.
I feel like they have fucked about. And I'd like to give them a small slice of "find out".
I realise it won't have a huge affect on internet permanence (I know the datahoarders have been going ham on archiving), and I doubt anything I've contributed is actually being referenced by anyone.
In the event you or anyone else does decide to wipe, export your saved post and leave Reddit. I did the following;
Used the program "Redact" to delete all my comments and post. This specifically edits the comments to a blank comment first, then deletes its so nothing is left behind.
Went here https://eternity.portals.sh/ to export my saved data into a JSON file. From there imported it into Excel and saved that
Going to delete my account come the 30th
Good luck everyone
