It honestly feels good. I have been mentally divorced from reddit since they doubled down on their API fuckery. I enjoyed my time there but, at this point, I don’t have the energy to move anywhere but forward. I’m glad to have stripped Reddit of my content.
Here’s to starting another life. I hope we can make it a good one.
I kept a CSV of all of my comments and posts via PowerDelete.
Then I messed up running the tool to update all my posts with a helpful message saying to reach out on Lemmy if needed. But I also kept the “delete” checkbox enabled. Ouch.
So eventually the whole script took much longer to run, edited all my posts with that useful text, only to delete them later on. I felt sorry for that case I had the best intentions, but there was no way of going back at that point.
