This has to be bumped up higher, I think people are still deleting their accounts before making sure their comments are either staying deleted or rewritten!!!

Can you provide a link to the “noise” memo that was leaked? I must’ve missed it because I haven’t heard of this. If it convinced you and was the final straw to delete your account, I’d be interested in seeing it as well

I’m more set on overriding all my comments, but I’m still on the fence about deleting the whole account. At least, once I know with 100% certainty that they won’t be reverted back to their original states (if possible)

I loved the way you wrote this for some reason. Very clear and well-informed

Probably like most of us, I use reddit as my search for quite literally almost any question or research I do - and this was done multiple times a day

I honestly have no idea what I’m going to do to find information. I absolutely LOVED reading real people’s real and genuine with anything. Tech, cooking, intermittent fasting, specific games, guides, custom android roms, careers, I could go on forever. And I would look across dozens of threads and even more comments, and then smash them together in my head to come up with the most likely accurate answer to my problem. And let’s not forget when dbags or misinformation is dowvoted to oblivion!

As a techie, I can’t even count on my hands how many times I have found someone random person having the same completely random and specific PC issue that I had - and they showed what they tried, what didn’t work, then I look in comments and find 6 different valid potential solutions. It was absolutely glorious and so useful

I hope that somehow, something even greater emerges from all of this that fills in this “need”. I don’t think reddit will ever be the same, and now I’d feel dirty using it to find information even if most of it will probably still be there

EDIT: wanted to add that I’m also worried because reddit was so easy to use and user friendly (at least in the ways we modified it lol) which made it really easy for people to join and add to the mass amount of information on the platform. I’m concerned that kbin/lemmy won’t work as a true replacement because they don’t seem nearly as straightforward
