  I had 5 different reddit accounts, deleted them all a week ago. Of course I forgot to have a look at the saved comments, but well… old news are old anyway. I’m just blown away by lemmy, so much better ux, sadly way less content. But those numbers indicate that this is about to change, too :-)

    Yes, this platform is way better in every way. Do what I do and add as much good content as you can. It helps! Welcome :)

    I deleted my (main) account, remembered my saved posts, but realised I would never do anything with it anyway.

      I exported before the API cutoff, wrote a crawler in a drunken all-nighter to delete my posts and overwrite my comments, and have only lurked a small handful of specific subs since

      Only recently got to using Lemmy at any scale though. It still isn’t quite the fix old reddit used to be, but seeing threads like this gives me a bit of hope that maybe the Internet is healing a bit

      I should finally get to deleting the various accounts…
