I was on the fence about it until the Spez AMA. Then, I decided I'd be leaving on the 30th.
Then, I had a user call me "fucking stupid" for supporting a sub shutting down, and that was the final straw for me. I had seen how friendly people on Lemmy are and this showed me how toxic Reddit is by comparison. So I immediately nuked all my comments & posts and deleted my account. This was around two weeks ago and I've been much happier here.
I'm still getting "kill yourself" reports on my comments after the shutdown.
