In no way do I have power at reddit. I was a long time lurker, maxed out at 4K karma/internet points, and none of my posts/comments got more than a few hundred votes. I was/am on no one’s radar.
I have my GDPR report.
On reddit over the past few weeks, I edited my posts to garbage text. Then, after learning about Redact, I deleted all of my comments and posts. After a few more days, I deleted my account.
Reddit, as I knew and loved it, is dead.
Yeah, this is a bunch of fun. Takes me back. Thanks for posting!
Thanks for your rapid response!
Still learning here; I appreciate the education.
Edits made.
Not sure if part of the post or just my slow connection, but that image took forever to load. HA!
“you can do what you want”
So far, that’s not been my experience. I tried deleting my lemmy.world instance/account but it didn’t work. I posted to lemmy.world Support and have not received any response https://lemmy.world/post/1230305. It’s only been 3 days, so I’ll give it some more time. Though I thought I would at least get a reply acknowledging receipt. The only response to my post was another person experiencing the same problem.
I still have my Reddit account and will check in briefly, but I’m not posting or upvoting. Mostly I check subreddits that I haven’t found a similar alternative here.
Somewhere I came across https://teddit.net/ which is kind of interesting. It shows Reddit r/all; you can’t login to your Reddit account, but it keeps traffic away from actual Reddit.
So far, I’m having a (more or less) fun time figuring out kbin/Lemmy!
