After years of using reddit, i finally deleted everything including my account there. Personally, i am not affected by the api prices, BUT, i couldn’t live with me supporting people, who see their userbase, moderators and creators as nothing but noise. The point i’m making? Greetings Lemmy. I joined a few days ago and i’m here to stay so cheers everyone and, hi

I can, because Reddit is useful to me, regardless of Spez’s low opinion of me and other Redditors. I’d love for something else to replace Reddit and punish rather than reward the people running it for their bad behavior. Hopefully that’s kbin / Lemmy?

But meanwhile I’m not going to cut off my nose to spite my face.

Subreddits choose to go dark? I support it.

Subreddits choose to open? I support it.

I was over Reddit when I saw the news from Christian (Apollo’s dev), then Spez’s AMA really cemented Reddit was a shit hole, then news came out that they were also laying off 90 staff members, and the final nail in the coffin for me was getting accosted by another user that I was “spreading misinformation and lying” about Reddit when I commented about supporting the black out.

Before you all leave Reddit, you should take your stuff with you, and then delete all posts and comments using one of the several ways to automate that.

Ideally turn them into gibberrish or some random phrase, but nothing with sense so they can’t train ai with it
