I've been on Reddit for 9 years. I just deleted all my posts and comments and then deleted my account. Good riddance, I say!

So in the article it seems that reddit is banking on getting money from the help in training AI models, but what if everyone started using scripts to change their posts and then ultimately ruining the model for AI. Wouldn't those companies then not want to use those API for reddit and then ultimately losing everything too?
Yup, my entire post history (such as it is) will be "Lorem Ipsum"ed before I delete the account.
I just wish I could migrate my thousands of useful comments to Lemmy before I leave.
