I took part in the Reddit blackout a month ago, and accessed Reddit through Apollo. After the blackout I looked at Reddit a handful of times and then let my association with Reddit die with Apollo.

I haven’t been there since, but now I feel as though I should have deleted my account of 7 years, that way everything I ever contributed will be gone.

However, to accomplish this as you all know I should delete all my posts first and edit all comments. I was wondering what people used to do this. I want everything to read “Edit: moved to Lemmy”.

I’m sure others migrating here have the same question. Thanks.

Lol my favorite was getting a passive aggressive automod message from a subreddit while i was editing/deleting everything using a program.

It went sorta like "oh it looks like you are editing your comment in protest of reddit...let us delete your comment for you then"

I just fucking laughed at it. Somebody actually took the time to go through the automod code to write an angry message for people editing their old comments.
