I deleted my 12 year 100k account at 11:59p Friday night. Had redact edit every old comment then delete them and closed the account. Some of my Google searches are still landing me over there. I don’t even know what it would take to put me there permanently, again. I’m just hoping I can cultivate my experience here, enough, so that I won’t have to find out.
Same here… i just quit cold turkey after ~15 years. I just tell myself I can do it again. I pinned the lemmy to my phone so it feels like RIF, just has less content. Thats why we are here though.
That’s what I did too lol. The muscle memory of clicking the bottom left spot of my phone was crazy after a decade of RIF being in one spot the whole time.
The less content is something that will change the more we post.
I plan to find a community or make one that is about just random games that nobody mentions anymore. I found a new love for old Xbox 360 games that have been forgotten.
I noticed googling my reddit username still showed links to posts I deleted with my name in the Google description. Clicking showed it was deleted content with no videos/images left.

I did power delete suite and replaced all my comments before deletion. I searched for my name and only one best of comment came up, the rest came up as lemmy comments.

I saw mine in Google but clicking into Reddit the comments were deleted. One of my posts from 9 years ago seems to still be up if I search by my name on Google but when I click it then my name is deleted as are my replies in the post.
It’s probably just cached. If you want to get fancy maybe a DMCA takedown notice will get it removed?
We should never go back no matter what. Imagine a world where email was centralized and theres was a monopoly company behind it and they started abusing their power. If the open email protocol came out and everyone switched to it, would you ever go back to the monopoly? Centralized monopolies always corrupt eventually. Any opportunity we have to distribute control, we should jump on it.
