10 years, 184k karma. I’m blanking out my account sometime around the first (whenever I get away with it), and un-subbing from everything. I’ll keep the account to make sure it stays empty, and to communicate with the handful of friends I’ve made on there who are probably staying on Reddit, but that’s it.

Don’t forget to ask all your data under gdpr before wiping the account. I asked my data and after 2 weeks still it’s not done so i have the feeling it’s computationally expensive for them. So, the more users ask for data, the better

Should hold off on deleted your account for the time being. Many subs are polling users on which direction to take and I’ve been messaging mods with short comments to move to lemmy.

this makes my little archivist heart sad tbh. fuck spez.

I wouldn’t delete your account (in case Reddit tries to replace the deleted comments as they have been doing). But I would unsubscribe from every subreddit.

Additionally, if you have any very useful comments/posts, repost them to Lemmy and then edit them to leave some information that will redirect users to your posts in Lemmy. That way good information isn’t lost and you’ll help to slowly drive users towards Lemmy over time.

I’ve already started moving over to lemmy but I’m also seeing some weird stuff on my Reddit account. I’ve had more ‘Followers’ sign on to my account in the last 2 weeks than I’ve seen in the last 3-4 years. I don’t believe these are real followers. What would be the reason for this? Is Reddit playing some sort of statistics game with long-time Reddit accounts?
