Ive been on reddit for more than a decade. Kinda bittersweet, but its not the first time I have moved on from an internet site. I just cant support reddit and sucking up all my posts for AI purposes. Feels terrible and spammy. Ive been a reddit premium holder for many many years.

Anyways, what communities do you recommend?

      Why? Unless you’re in a few location in the world, they won’t actually delete your valuable data.

        Deleting your account only deletes your username from posts and comments. Why leave behind useful content?

        Fuck Reddit!

          But they would keep that information behind the scenes and only display [deleted] or whatever it said.

              No you’re missing the point, unless you live in a location that has laws to force companies to actually delete your data, they won’t actually delete it and thus deleting your account will achieve nothing.

                No one gives a shit if Reddit stores your posts in the background, hidden from the front-end, it’s about removing useful content from the public.

                Thus… Deleting all your posts and comments before deleting your account.

                  No, it’s about removing content from being sold to AI or other companies.

                  No one gives a shit about the front-end.
