    Everything.

    I deleted 2 accounts, 8 year old and 12 year old with a combined 100,000 content. Deleted all my content too. Will never return. Best thing for them to do at this point is nuke Spez from orbit and profusely apologize, but honestly I hope this kills the platform entirely.

      I doubt that this kills Reddit in a single blow, but I hope that it breathes life into the Fediverse.

      Same. Used shreddit.com and nuked my comments AND posts. I won’t leave any content for that idiot known as u/spez. Only way for Reddit to be a good platform is to scale down and fire him faster than a Concorde travels a metre.

    The reddit corp folk have found themselves in a dilemma of their own making. I hope reddit does not “die”, and I’m not worried about that; but I think this strike or whatever you call it is a huge deal, a wake up call, for all of us. There’s no going back.

    What’s great about reddit is redditors, the mods, the culture built. And even the corp, up til recently, for resourcing it to happen. But it’s time to move on – to a new home, maybe here. lemmy looks very nice. I’m hedging my bets, got a login at kbin.social…

    We need reddit to exist so that people can migrate from it. I hope there’s the energy to change and adapt. I was shocked by the number of gone-silent subs! That’s a good sign.

    I’m posting in Arduino. I haven’t been on reddit since sunday. I’m gonna go back, and agitate to move.

    I was on facebook, ditched it 100%, never going back, etc, but I was dismayed that all of my friends there stayed, resistant to change. I hope that isn’t our fate with this, but reddit folk seem more adaptable. I hope anyway.
