This was a really hard decision for me but I purged all my posts, votes and comments via Shreddit. I then deleted all my accounts. I've been on Reddit since it was just a baby website. I love Reddit, the friends and the communities I was involved in changed my life for the better.

We'll see how it goes but the only way we are going to win this fight is to walk away from Reddit. We have to send a message to them and the only way to do that is to hit them where it really hurts, right in the wallet.

Change is a good thing and I am ready to embrace it. I'm all in on kbin now. Let's see where we go from here 🍻

I haven't deleted my accounts yet, but I blocked reddit in my router firewall. This past week I found myself repeatedly going there without thinking, like a genuine addiction.

I didn't realize until the blackout how bad Google search results are without Reddit. Everything from finding video game hints to recommendations on the best bicycle seats... All the best, trustworthy content was from users on Reddit.

I've compromised by using Google cached search results to avoid giving Reddit views.

Now the arduous but necessary task of making the Fediverse the place for those results instead.
