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've done a data request with Reddit and will probably attempt to use a script to download my entire history (plus context, if possible) before July 1, then I'll see about overwriting the comments.

For that reason, I'm leaving mine up. Some might be useless, sure. But others I put some effort in. They're a little piece of Internet history, and I'm loath to set fire to that. I can still move to another platform while leaving my account intact.

I did the same to my 10 year old, 120k karma account; all that was lost was stupid jokes and meme references.
