I deleted my Facebook account years ago, no regrets. Deleted my Reddit account yesterday, no regrets. Not sure what OP’s point is, but comparing people to toddlers when you are incapable of typing a complete sentence does not help you make it.

just curious if anyone regrets going nuclear

Not in the slightest. As far as I'm concerned web 1.0 was far superior to this heavily centralized bullshit anyway.

how does it feel knowing that you looked like feces smearing toddlers to everyone else?

Anyone that perceived me as such, doesn't deserve the content I created in the first place. They're not entitled to my efforts.

I imagine this was a lot of people's first reality check in a long ass time lmfao

It's interesting how you went from gung-ho anti-reddit to this. hmm.

Where do you see the old gung-ho anti-reddit bit? Genuinely curious.

TheRazorX ,

just click on the user's profile name, and you can see what they posted before.

Thanks, I did that but didn't see anything that seemed to fit. I was wondering if maybe it had since been deleted (to hide this user's anti-reddit origin history, no doubt...)

I don't have any regrets here. I vastly prefer the vibe of the fediverse. I feel like I can actually contribute and have people respond to me meaningfully.

I do think it was a "reality check", as you say, for some people that the exodus wouldn't completely bring reddit to its knees. It'll be a slow decline into irrelevancy that will take a longer amount of time as new mods become overwhelmed and give up, people slowly realize the content creators and commenters have moved on, etc. It could take years.

If there are any “feces smearing toddlers” to be found, the preponderance of them are on Reddit. It’s what you’re trying to do here, and you’re welcome to fuck right back off there.

Actually, pretty good tbh. I deleted facebook, twitter, etc back in 2019, deleted google in 2022, and deleted reddit in 2023. Now i just use lemmy and mastodon for socials and i am glad i took those steps

No ragrets…

I am really proud of myself for being consistent even if the protest ultimately didn’t work. I detest social media that disrespects their user. Thats exactly why in the last 3 years i deleted my Instagram, Spapchat, Whatsapp and Twitter account.

And if some people see me as a “feces smearing toddler” then thats their problem. I like it here a lot better.
