    Weird, I just deleted my account, uninstalled the app, and moved to Lemmy with no desire to go back.

    I was on reddit for well over a decade, and performed a lot of free labour, not just as a mod but putting real thought into posts and comments.

    Anyway, I requested all my data so I could have an archive of it, then ran my comments through PowerDeleteSuite a couple of times for good measure, and honestly was shocking how quickly I stopped having feelings for my old account.

    I’ve also had no use for the “archive” of posts and comments over the last 10+ years. It just made pulling the plug easier.

    When they killed off the app I was using, I refused to install their BS.

    Web only, especially on my phone was enough to make me stop.

    Now I only end up there through search results and that’s only when there’s no other option.

    I as lucky enough to use Apollo. As soon as it stopped working, Reddit became useless to me.

    (Or not useful enough to use their horrendous website, old.reddit website or official app)

        That’s what got me back here but then I found out how a custom ReVanced patch could be used to make it work again. The addiction can now continue uninterrupted!
