Initially i did not want to purge my account because I found it to be a valuable resource. But seeing this post was the last straw! I don’t want to be part of reddit where it is threatening and trying to silence its own community’s!
PS: First post on Lemmy!
Welcome!
For me, the worst part of all this crap is how much Reddit Inc. is eager to lie to the users, with a forced smile on face, almost like saying “you’re a bunch of gullible morons, aren’t you?”. That admin reply that you linked is a prime example of that:
Subreddits belong to the community of users who come to them for support and conversation.
Their actions show that the subreddits belong to neither the users, nor the mods: they belong to Reddit Inc.
Welcome!
Welcome to the fediverse!
Is it possible to use one of these tools to delete all of my comments and contributions but not my liked and saved posts? I might want to go through my liked and saved to see if I want to save anything before I delete the whole account. And I don’t want to spend that much time on reddit atm.
Yes. Download redact.dev - I did it over the weekend and took a few hours to remove everything but was super easy.
