Currently cloning all of my saved posts with bdfr before sub's go dark
I've edited and deleted useless comments but I don't think I will delete helpful stuff I've posted as I've often found useful information from deleted accounts.
Then on June 30th I'll delete my 3 reddit accounts in solidarity with the 3PAs that are shutting down.
It seems like this year is really going to test the fediverse, first Twitter, now Reddit, and YouTube seems to be following by shutting down Vanced and attempting to shutdown Invidious and also Twitch seems to be messing with their content creators too
They're going to push a lot of people away and so far it seems like Mastodon and now Lemmy are attempting to fill the niche, I hope it works out because I love the concept
If there's one thing I think will be fine it's YouTube. Even if it goes through changes, it's more or less the only platform that does what it does at that level.
