Initially i did not want to purge my account because I found it to be a valuable resource. But seeing this post was the last straw! I don't want to be part of reddit where it is threatening and trying to silence its own community's!
PS: First post on Lemmy!
Welcome to the fediverse!
Welcome!
For me, the worst part of all this crap is how much Reddit Inc. is eager to lie to the users, with a forced smile on face, almost like saying "you're a bunch of gullible morons, aren't you?". That admin reply that you linked is a prime example of that:
Subreddits belong to the community of users who come to them for support and conversation.
Their actions show that the subreddits belong to neither the users, nor the mods: they belong to Reddit Inc.
I read right up until I encountered the word duty and then my now so familiar disgust overcame me and I had to back out again. I‘m just going to quote I think it was Bakunin (I have a bad habit to save quotes I like without the author lmao):
Oafs and weaklings! Every duty that they would like to impose on us we will furiously trample under our sacrilegious feet. Every shady phantom that they would place before our eyes, greedy for light, we will angrily rip up with our daringly profaning hands.
Welcome!
Thank you. I am very sad about the situation though. I was never in memes subs and alike. I was mostly active in r/linuxquestions r/homelab etc.
Yep, reddit management sucks.
Is it possible to use one of these tools to delete all of my comments and contributions but not my liked and saved posts? I might want to go through my liked and saved to see if I want to save anything before I delete the whole account. And I don't want to spend that much time on reddit atm.
I believe you can exclude those from deletion.
Yes. Download redact.dev - I did it over the weekend and took a few hours to remove everything but was super easy.
spez is just showing his true colours, which are green-for-go and red-for-stop based on how he's feeling in the moment ... so pretty much like how Musk runs twitter.
