I just ran Power Delete Suite on all of my comments and self posts, stating they have been removed in protest.

On July 1st, I am deleting every comment and post, then closing my account. Reddit was fun while it lasted.

The fediverse is still raw, but I see massive protentional here, and I am ready for this journey with all of you.

I probably wouldn‘t remove the account itself
Otherwise you can‘t remove them again when they get restored by the admins

Yeah. I deleted my content and account. Next day content was back, but my account was still gone.

Do you live in Europe? Perhaps you can request the Right to be Forgotten (GDPR). If a lot of European do it, that might pressure Reddit.

Not sure whether that helps. If there is no critical mass they can just say "F... you".

If you deleted your Reddit account, your content is disassociated and it stays behind, unless you used a tool like PowerDeleteSuite to automate replacing comment text and then deleting.
