It also works on all sites, which is why FF is no longer my daily driver.

They're already on Insta, so they're really not giving up anything extra
I think you're going to begin to see a lot of that on Reddit. I overwrote and delete my ~10 years of comments and posts before deleting my account. I imagine a significant number of others have/will too.
I'm not sure if you're old enough to remember Digg, but they also alienated their users which caused users to migrate to Reddit.
I deleted my Reddit account right after I noticed Apollo stopped working. Mastodon and Kbin are filling the void nicely and I find I don't miss Reddit at all.
At first I did feel that way. But as my engagement with reddit went down it felt like my life improved.
Some subreddits require a certain level of karma to be able to post or reply to comments. I don't know if that was to help against bots or people who would make an account to avoid a ban or something. Other than that karma was just an ego boost for those who cared about such things.
Getting rid of old reddit is a given at this point.
And since u/spez is following the Elon business model, I would imagine locking content behind a paywall is next.
It stopped about 2200 US eastern time for me...at least that's when I noticed it. I uninstalled and then deleted my Reddit account. I'm all in on the fediverse!
There's definitely room for improvement, but I like what I see so far and don't have a problem learning a new paradigm. I'm sure that as the platform matures things will become more consistent.
Most of us are new here. It's like the great Digg migration years back!
Learning a new platform is fun, and I can't wait to see this take off as Reddit becomes a shell of it's former self.
