I was just browsing a thread on c/nfl looking for new mods. There were multiple 12+ year Redditors there offering to help.

Got me wondering. There are 14,000 of us in this community. How many of us are ten year plus users who have just had enough?

Edit: I didn’t expect this post to be as poignant as it became. There are so many of you… I can’t reply to everyone. I’m an 11 year user and have modded something like 150 subs over the years. I’m really sad too, but I’m finding that lemmy has most of the content I’m looking for, just needs more comments.

The API was a big blow, but removing awards on past posts and deleting coin balances is really dumb.

    Reddit had been my greatest online addiction by far

    Yeah for me too, glad reddit broke that habbit for me, with lemmy my participation is definitely more healthy, less “doom” scrolling, more productive things like programming.

    I want to make sure that I can reliably delete my full comment history before I do that and I haven’t bothered researching that yet.

    What you want to do, is probably fill all your comments and posts automated with garbage or a fuck u/spez message, or lemmy promotion. I think this hurts reddit even more. (With something like this: https://github.com/andrewbanchich/shreddit )
