I just ran Power Delete Suite on all of my comments and self posts, stating they have been removed in protest.

On July 1st, I am deleting every comment and post, then closing my account. Reddit was fun while it lasted.

The fediverse is still raw, but I see massive protentional here, and I am ready for this journey with all of you.

    I wouldn’t delete your account (in case Reddit tries to replace the deleted comments as they have been doing). But I would unsubscribe from every subreddit.

    Additionally, if you have any very useful comments/posts, repost them to Lemmy and then edit them to leave some information that will redirect users to your posts in Lemmy. That way good information isn’t lost and you’ll help to slowly drive users towards Lemmy over time.

      You need to tell this to more people since they shouldn’t destroy valuable information.

      I’ve been replacing my posts with gibberish (google “gibberish generator”) and a link to lemmy.

      Be aware that /r/AskReddit has some automation that will delete your post if they detect some script. I don’t know how it works, but so far the trigger for me seems to be any link to the /r/apolloapp post where Christian posts his call logs.

      Do you have evidence of reddit replacing comments?
