Jup. Deleted all my posts, guides and comments yesterday.

I think it's somewhat dramatic for the "future" since so much of reddit is absolutley great knowledge. I can't count how many times a reddit post or comment has helped me solve all kinds of weird problems...

I'm in the EU so I did a GDPR data request before deleting and essentially have a backup of all my own content. I'll filter through it and put on Lemmy or my blog what I think is worth keeping.

That's a good idea! I understand the sentiment of leaving a final "fuck you" to Reddit, but at the same time the thought of losing the treasure trove of accumulated knowledge stored there pains me.
