Gotta be honest, watching the titles of the posts getting deleted made me a bit nostalgic, because it was an almost 5yo account.
However, now that's old news, and my account is totally gone.
I won't miss it really, I like Lemmy a lot more.

And Lemmy will probably not have the answer they're looking for. As someone who has seen the answer to my problems most likely be in deleted comments before, fucking don't. It doesn't make anyone more likely to look at Lemmy, it just makes their lives harder in an already unbearably stressful world.
If you want to purge your memes and witty comments, go for it. Just leave the valuable technical information FOR THE LOVE OF GOD.
It won't if people remain on reddit. :)
But for individuals, it either does or it doesn't. It doesn't matter if someone in a few years happens to ask the same question and get an answer on Lemmy.
