My last account is still open but I've deleted everything on it... I want to delete it on June 30th. You know... to send a message. lol.

Deleted Reddit Sync app off my phone. This will drop my Reddit activity 99.99%. Keeping account in case I need to look something up down the road.

I’ve deleted all my content (by hand—there wasn’t much), and I plan to delete my account on June 30 before Apollo stops working.

I'm seeing it out. Once old.reddit is gone then I'll pretty much have to.

Already used Redacted to remove all posts and comments but still lurking as long as Boost is working. It's not easy to let go

Haven't gone scorched earth yet. Don't think I will, but I'll think twice before going back on the site. There's some things that are valuable, and I'll wait and see if they even stay valuable.

I'm probably not going to get rid of my reddit account entirely, at least not until I get some better means of reading the news. Definitely not using it on mobile though, the official app is atrocious

I am just waiting for.more communities to join over here and I will delete my account

Not yet. I think Lemmy needs to mature a bit more and get more of the groups I'm interested in.

I deleted Boost three days ago. I'm still adjusting to the implosion of Twitter and this happens.

Currently using 'Redacted' app on Android to purge my musing. Automated for the win.

Did it yesterday, and also removed all my comments and posts, but I didn't post that often - I have probably made 30-40 comments and posts in 2 years. However, I still use Reddit on my phone with Relay but logged out. When Reddit shuts down its free API I'll probably switch fully to Fediverse.

I can't because there are no bulgarians on lemmy, I need r/bulgaria

My account is still there but I haven't been back since creating an account here on sh.itjust.works. I don't plan on going back.

I nuked both of my alts, but I haven't been able to pull the trigger on the 10 year old main account yet.

Maybe once I get the rest of my recipes and stuff over here I'll scorch the earth, but there are still too many memories in there.

I'm waiting for my GDPR data export, but it's taking longer than they promise already. Very close to get rid of it all.

Are you guys seeing the trainwreck in this AMA?

I'll probably not. Regardless of their current decisions, old reddit posts help a lot when my browser just won't give me a straight answer

I had been without a Reddit account for a while using Infinity (3rd party app) without being logged in. I didn't care about being able to post of comment but it's much more fun on Lemmy! Lemmy is much nicer than Reddit in my opinion and I'll end up stopping using Reddit completely

Maybe I'm being naive, but I still have some hope that the blackout will cause Reddit to reverse their decision, or at least be open to re-negotiating with the 3PA devs. I'm exploring alternatives either way.

Strongly considering it. I requested a dump of all my posts & comments there (going back to 2005!) and expect to be pulling out of there at the end of the month if this absurd situation isn't resolved.

You can request a dump of all your Reddit data here under EU GDPR or California CCPA.

I have too much history on Reddit to want to delete my account, I just intend to use Lemmy instead going forward

I cleared my post and comment history. I probably will delete my account after the free API shuts down.

I will delete it when Sync for Reddit cannot be used anymore. But I will stop using reddit anyway

Not yet. I'm waiting to see if Reddit will send me my data. Then, even if they don't, I'll delete my posts and comments by the end of the month.

I didn't quit Reddit. Reddit banned my favorite community because the shitposts were making their embedded national security goons too nervous. This was nearly 3 years ago.

Just waiting for the Spez AMA shitshow and them I'm out

I haven't and I won't. As much as I hate the API changes and as much as I hate being forced to use the terrible official app, there are communities on Reddit that won't be going dark indefinitely that I am an active part of and wish to remain part of.

Lemmy is a great concept in theory, but in practice it leads to what was a single community on Reddit being spread over several instances. A community with tens of thousands on Reddit might find a few communities spread over a handful of instances and because a community doesn't show up in the Communities list under All until someone does the [email protected] command for that specific community (meaning they physically went to other instances to find that community on that other instance and then in practice manually added it to the list)

This also means that as the amount of instances grows, specific communities will become even harder to find as the instances themselves become more obscure and hard to find.

Just deleted 1 of my 2 reddit accounts.

This one was 11 years old. Once I get my requested account data downloaded for my 14 year old account, it's gone.

I’ll go back for specific things like I’d go to any website looking for a solution for an issue after googling.

I’m not browsing Reddit anymore. Place is cancer. Even before all this API stuff I was over the nfts, the unimaginative meta humor, the predictable and repetitive nature of every top comment, the puns, the thirsty comments every time someone looks somewhat attractive, the hostility, etc. Reddit feels like I’m reading chatgpt now.

I’ll miss the smaller subreddits. Hopefully they’ll come soon. That’s where interesting conversations occurred.

I don’t know when I’ll delete my account. I have a lot of “saved” items I don’t want to lose yet. If I don’t find myself using those saves after a bit I’ll delete everything.

Deleted my 14 year old account today.

Deleted my posts, deleted my comments, account will be active until the 30th then I’ll probably delete that too.

It sucks - I had some 20K comment karma on about 2000 posts over 13+ years - but they’ve burnt that bridge and I’m not giving them anything back.

If I need to create a burner account at some point down the road then that’ll happen but I just don’t want to engage with it any more.

I want to transition off of Reddit but I'm not deleting my account because I feel like there's too much valuable information on the site to get rid of it all just yet.

me! i used power delete suite to ensure that all my posts and comments were also deleted beforehand :)

I'm trying to make up my mind because a lot of my favourite subreddits are on there, especially the circlejerk ones because they're my humour fuels.

I just pulled the plug and deleted my account but to be honest, I was mostly a lurker who mostly upvoted (or downvoted on occasions!) posts over there.
