I think I'll leave my Reddit account and not delete it. My account suddenly going silent, after 13 years of near-daily activity, at this of all times, ought to make the statement I wish to make.

I'm wondering whether I should post a goodbye message on my Reddit profile page with a link to my new home here on Lemmy. See if they have the audacity to ban me for “spamming” my own profile page. Even if they do, it'll be one of numerous accounts falsely banned for “spam” in the middle of a well-publicized uproar and mass migration away from Reddit, and that isn't fooling anyone. Either way, my statement is made.
