Does anyone regret deleting their Reddit account?

When the whole Reddit fiasco started happening, I saw a lot of people wiping and deleting their Reddit accounts and moving elsewhere, like here on Lemmy.

Now that it’s starting to die down a little bit, does anyone regret doing that? Or are you glad that you took that step?

I haven't deleted mine, but I no longer visit the site. I mostly nuked the content on my account a few years ago. Sure there's some stuff now, but it's nothing important. I'm just leaving it there for convenience.

That said I'm mostly moving off of corporate owned media. I put links to my new stuff on my accounts on those sites.

Not really, but I had already habituated myself to nuking accounts and deleting posts routinely long before now. I regret Reddit became what it is, not disconnecting from that.

I didn't delete my account but did delete RIF once it stopped working. I was mostly a lurker on reddit and the few comments and posts i did make are of little to no value to the platform.

I figured wasting a few MB of space on a harddrive would be a more effective protest than doing them a favor and deleting my admittedly worthless content.
