A call-to-action for Reddit users to reclaim their digital autonomy
Wouldn’t it be better to lift and shift? You can’t do it for comments, but it would work for posts in subs that had an equivalent in kbin or lemmy. Instead of just deleting from Reddit, first duplicate to the equivalent and then delete from Reddit.
For what it’s worth, I did that with what I determined was important content before I edited all my comments to a canned “I’m moving to a federated solution” message.
Hey, does this only do posts? Or will it take care of comments too?
Yesss let it all burn down. Give fuck u/spez nothing but scorched earth!
I’ve posted this elsewhere but haven’t gotten any responses yet.
I used my own simple python script to edit all my comments but all of a sudden, I can’t view any of my comments older than 6 months. This was never an issue before the API bullshit started. Manually checking what comments are available to me via API shows the same issue.
Either it’s just me or Reddit has enabled some sort of protection against exactly this sort of action.
