I don't think I'll delete my account or comments. There's a lot of memories there. I've said a lot of nice things to nice people. Reddit was one of the places I grieved for my father. And I didn't have my act together enough to download my comment/post history before the third-party export tools stopped working.

I respect your decision, but I also wish to write that your experiences are yours, and nobody can take that away from you. Lately, I have been working to take pictures of items I don't need anymore to help me remove things I don't need from my life as a way to hold the experience but let go of the object.

This is not advice, only, know that nobody owns your experiences but you.
