Just realized that the other day.

I had initially intended to feel it out and honor the blackout from 12-14, then figured, "I'm here now, might as well ride out the month if Reddit isn't responding in any meaningful way to the community's requests" and now I think I'll just be in the fedi apps for the foreseeable future.

It's different here, but it hasn't been a struggle and it gets better and better with time. Feels nice to not support inhumane and user-hostile endless corporate greed.

I've been actively purging my account since then but new comments and posts that weren't appearing before continue to show up, as recently as a post appearing last night. Will be waiting for my GDPR request to be processed, ensuring everything is deleted, then submitting another just to waste their time to finally delete the account.

But yeah not using the platform. It's run its course. It was definitely not the same since 2016 election/Cambridge analytica/Russian bot brigading. Took leaving to realize how polarized and rage filled it was, even after leaving all of the default subs and finding niche communities.
