Asklemmy

I have deleted Apollo off of my phone, but I plan to still use the few tiny sub reddit communities that I enjoy. However, I am actively avoiding r/all and major subs that are just meme factories.

I've begun the process, requested my data from them and then afterwards i'll be nuking my account

Not yet. I want to, though. I want to try saving down everything I've saved over the past 10 years. Once I do that, then I'll feel comfortable deleting it.

Just waiting on a data request download for submissions (through reddits data request if there isn't a faster way) and noting/making my last few communities on Lemmy, then I'll be on my way out. Didn't expect to clear it this soon but life hits pretty fast sometimes.

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.

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.

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

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.

Deleted my 14 year old account today.

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.

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.

Just deleted my 5yo account. But it wasn’t that hard since I mostly lurked.

Planning on deleting my alt accounts, however I'm not going to delete my main account, I will just programmatically delete all my posts and comments.

I suspect that deleting accounts won't be what Reddit is looking at anyway, all they'll care about is ad revenue, and my accounts which were not generating any revenue will not bother them in the slightest.

I deleted the apps on my phone and my ipad so I don't get any push notifications. I will probably only post on here. There are some communities I kinda rely on when it comes to information, tutorials etc. that are not really existing here. So I'm trying to kinda slowly move everything over here as far as I can do that. Hoping that more and more communites will be coming over too.

I honestly prefer the interface and how clean everything is here. Makes me wanna use reddit as little as possible lmao

Just deleted my 3yo account with lots of juicy karma in it, also 2 alts

Just did it, no ragrets

Deleted my account & the 3rd party app on my phone. I'm only checking select subreddits through Libreddit (until it stops working).

I deleted my accounts earlier this week (before the AMA). I decided I could just make a new one in the future if that ever was a thing, and I’d rather not contribute to their line charts of “active users”, and rather would appear on those for “accounts deleted in the last 30 days”.

For me it was a symbolic reminder that I don’t want to lurk there and deleting my account was an action I remember. I hope they follow the direction of Twitter and Instagram by making the platform unusable without an account, further cementing more barriers for me.

Fully deleted. Never going back. To be honest, I was looking for a reason to get off. Glad it’s done.

I emptied the content from each comment I made. Then I deleted my accounts. I'm glad to be part of these new communities and conversations.

I'll try to back up all the content I created over the years (mostly memes) and my comments, but I don't feel like using Reddit anymore.

It was convenient, but their business practices are a slap in the face of too many users, mods and devs.

I am watching the show and will keep doing that till 30th. It feels like a social experiment, I am curious to see how different sub-communities will react. Sort if similar to what happened with twitter, the day elon pulled a spez I deleted my account.

I hadn't really actively engaged with Reddit in years, and I stopped lurking almost cold turkey when they killed off the personal homepage on the mobile web interface earlier this year. I deleted my account when the Apollo news broke (I've never even used a third-party app, but it's crystal-clear what direction the wind is blowing). I only found out about lemmy after I pulled the plug.

Now to figure out how mastodon and all the other "fediverse" apps work :-)

Done some weeks ago already. Reddit is increasingly suffering from what Doctorow calls enshittyfication and that led me to delete my account.

Not yet but I haven’t used it since the Apollo drama.

Just deleted RiF in anticipation of the blackout. Ill check it again on the first of next month and if it doesn't exist or work ill be gone for good. Going to suck, mainly need to find a new source for news, possibly on youtube or here, just enough to be up to date.

I've deleted all the posts in my 12 year account but I find it hard to nuke the whole account.

They sure aren't going to make any more money off of me though.

I've been lurking on regularly cycled usernames, so that was pretty easily done. I haven't deleted Slide yet, but since it'll stop working on 30th, that's a given. I'm going to try my best to help build up the niche communities like hardware focused ones on lemmy

I'm kind of emotionally attached to my main and alt account to do that, yet.
