1 main, 1 alt, and a throwaway. 5, 5 and 3 years, with 14K karma between them. I wasn't a power user, but I wasn't exactly casual.

I had some great conversations, I had a lot of fun, I met the woman I love on Reddit. But it's clear that we're not users to them, we're just free content to be monetized so Reddit can boost their IPO. That doesn't interest me.

Used Power Delete Suite to edit all my posts and then delete them. I'll keep the accounts around until I'm sure u/spez or one of his minions don't edit them back but I'm done. There's no going back, only forward.

Feels good.

I deleted my two year account two or three weeks ago. It was my second account, after a one year hiatus. 2,8K karma. most of it from comments. I posted most frequently on r/ADHD and on r/r4r.

Due to anxiety and rejection sensitive dysphoria, I almost never read any reply or private message after posting a comment on certain subreddits. I guess reddit was not a good site for undiagnosed/untreated ADHD & ASD people.

Things changed a lot since I joined Kbin and since I'm more active on Lemmy. I regret nothing.
