It is a bummer to leave behind a place that I enjoyed. I met several people IRL, I got 2 Guinness World Records for Reddit Secret Santa. Countless new music from r/listentothis & r/music. Great brewery recommendations from people in the places I visit from r/beer.

I'm looking forward to find fediverse places that are just as fun & helpful.

deleted my 17yr account. mlem is great for Apollo users.

I recommend mlem! 10 year reddit user and daily Apollo user, this isn't feeling as foreign as I'd imagined. It helps that I browse /r/all like a madman, so browsing /c/all here isn't actually that different

Nice.
I went nuclear and used Redact (redact.dev) to edit-then-delete all my posts.
Reddits value is its communities and content.

I also delete my 11 year account was gonna be my cake day July 1sth. what a present I got from the reddit CEO himself :D!

6 year old account deleted. I came here, just trying to understand the differences in the way things work but should sort it sooner than later. Glad someone already has the UKCasual ~~subreddit~~ ~~sublemmy~~ community going. Where else are we going to talk about cups of tea and what order jam and cream go on scones?

Also deleted my 8-yr Eternity account yesterday after removing all my posts. Glad you’re here!

Deleted my 10 year-old account early today, myself. Felt great.

Just deleted my 14 year old account. Just a tip with redact when deleted you can edit all your comments and posts to say something. I entered "Deleted due to reddit's API policy".

It's rather wonderful - I deleted my many accounts and now enjoying life on the bright side.

I'm not sure I'd go back to Reddit now even if they sort out their act...

I just got banned after reporting a fox post on r/politics stating climate change hasn’t made wildfires worse….

Saying I’m abusing the report toon to bully. For reporting one fucking post. Fuck that site. I’m just pissed off I can no longer delete all my comments and posts.

F*ck yea! 10yr old account for me. I like it so far. also on kbin and mastodon

Was on reddit for over 9 years, account deleted, never looking back

Proud of all of you. Will get there soon myself I reckon.

I've had my current one for about 12 years too and will be deleting it in the next day or so. I'm just trying to find alternative communities for subreddits I was subscribed to and lurked on often whether it's on a Lemmy Instance or Discord.

Edit: ok, all deleted now.

I've archived my saved posts and upvotes, and deleted the mobile app. I never use the website. I might shred my comments and posts and delete my account before the end of the month. I don't think I'll go back. Honestly, I was tiring of it anyway. So many bots, reposts and memes. I'm not optimistic about Lemmy, to be honest - Mastodon seems to have quietened down after the initial flurry of activity, so I can see the same thing happening here, but it will be interesting to see what happens. But I think I'm done with Reddit.

Usually a lurker, but hello folks. Hoping this will be a nice spot for some uk-focused stuff.

I also deleted mine a few days . It was only a few years old so it had nothing on most people's I see posting. I won't be back.

Tell your friends!

Do a flip!

I just wiped and deleted mine, too. PSA for anyone who is wanting to remove all their content, you need to delete every comment / post individually before deleting your account. Just deleting the account does not delete the associated postings, your username simply becomes disassociated with them.

Crumpets and tea for all!!

Swim with sharks?

wtf else should I do heavy breathing

I suggest enjoying that feeling of freedom. At least that's what I did after wiping all my Reddit post & comments and deleting my 10 year old account. Surprisingly enough I don't feel a shred of regret.

You did the right thing bro!

One of the things I was curious about after removing all my comments was what I ended up downvoting. Nearly every single one was a misclick. Some were pretty interesting. Grabbed all the saved cool guides I've collected over the years.

Just gotta replace that doom scroll, hopefully with something a bit less of a time waste!
