But there's not many current users over there to answer them. If you still have a reddit account and are willing to help some folks out, please consider doing so!

I appreciate folks making the effort to help over there. I nuked my 12-year-old account and try not to give them any additional traffic, but onboarding new folks is probably one of the best arguments for activity there

wish we could somehow transfer reddit history, but reddit legally owns our posts and identity

Archive.org has it all saved

Well, you can at least download all your reddit account information into a file that you can archive locally. I wanted to make sure my best puns were preserved at all costs 😅

its in their rules, they own everything youve posted and your identity that you use on the site

Rules and laws are just strongly worded suggestions

I wanted to give you some shade for not posting any links to back up your claims.

There was a rumor going around that EULAs can be easily attacked, but when I did a very unthorough search of it, I found the end of this wikipedia article states otherwise.

I'm not making any claims that require sources or links, it's simply a philosophy and a fact of life, depending how you look at it.

Just because something is a rule and you may face consequences for breaking it, does not mean that you must follow it. You always have the choice and the option to refuse to follow a rule or a law.
