There's a schedule I rely on that gets posted on Reddit, but I just stay logged out and see it that way. I've asked on their Discord if they'd also post it on Lemmy or Mastodon, but they haven't replied. It's a very slow Discord though.

I haven't nuked my account yet simply because I think it could do some good. I was a power user and I went back in and pinned a note to the top of my profile telling people to come to Lemmy. So anyone who looks me up, and I frequently got responses in months-old threads, so that's not impossible, will see that. If it convinces even a couple of people, it's worth it.

I did something similar to that with my Twitter account, that and while I stopped using it in November of last year I didn't want to delete it right away in the off chance that things changed and it got better. But after a few months I figured anyone that wanted to find me on Mastodon would have found me and Twitter wasn't any better, so I hit the nuke button. I get ya'.
