Deleted my posts, deleted my comments, account will be active until the 30th then I’ll probably delete that too.

It sucks - I had some 20K comment karma on about 2000 posts over 13+ years - but they’ve burnt that bridge and I’m not giving them anything back.

If I need to create a burner account at some point down the road then that’ll happen but I just don’t want to engage with it any more.

Been using Reddit for over a decade too, it sucks that all this is going down, but f emm. It's unfortunate, but I'm sure the Lemmy community will grow. 2AM Chili and Ice Soap!!
