“We’ve known for over a decade that people come to Reddit to talk about the products they love – take r/BuyItForLife for example, a community of over 1.5 million redditors who have been sharing recommendations and advice about their lifelong, must-have purchases since 2011. These updates will uplevel the search-and-discover experience for both brands and our users by tapping into our differentiated value as a hub for actionable conversation”

My reddit account is 8+ years old but I don't feel right about deleting it or the comments.

As I wrote in another thread, many of my comments in there are answers to questions and/or explanations/instructions.

So many times I found solutions in reddit old comments that I couldn't find anywhere else that it doesn't feel right to me to remove mine.

You think you’re leaving it there to help strangers, you’re really leaving it there to help Reddit Corporate.

If they don’t reverse course by the 30th, I’m nuking my content.

I respect your opinion, it's up to each individual to decide what to do with their content.

I know it's a compromise, I know it doesn't help from the perspective of "fighting the bad guy" but I still believe it's worth it anytime it helps random people.
