This was a really hard decision for me but I purged all my posts, votes and comments via Shreddit. I then deleted all my accounts. I’ve been on Reddit since it was just a baby website. I love Reddit, the friends and the communities I was involved in changed my life for the better.
We’ll see how it goes but the only way we are going to win this fight is to walk away from Reddit. We have to send a message to them and the only way to do that is to hit them where it really hurts, right in the wallet.
Change is a good thing and I am ready to embrace it. I’m all in on kbin now. Let’s see where we go from here 🍻
I also did this. 5yrs and 1k karma.
I’m not that optimistic about lemmy’s future (especially after lemmy.world defederation on beehaw), but I’m glad to be here.
If it won’t work, I’ll just stop wasting my time on reading things I don’t need. If it will, that’ll be cool.
In a general sense I’m in favor of the community using the tools that are fully integrated to curate their experiences. If you desperately need lemmy.world and beehaw you can sign up someplace else, that doesn’t block either. They don’t have to deal with each other, and your experience continues on.
