    Not completely normal. I deleted my account that was old enough to sign up for most websites on its own. I’m not the only one.

      Haven’t deleted either of both of my 14 yr accounts yet, but I haven’t been on Reddit since the blackout and have plans to nuke it all after I navigate new subscriptions and think it through.

      FWIW, I find the experience a refreshing re-start, just like when Digg and Slashdot fucked up and I’m already seeing shit posting, memes, and fresh content galore on Lemmy in just the last week. I doubt I’ll go back to Reddit except for some esoteric solutions that I find in searches.

          I’m not planning on deleting mine, I do have some good technical answers on my account that I don’t want to delete. I figure stopping participating is more important than going back and deleting it.

        10 years for me and not been on the weekend before the protest and have no plans to return anytime soon. But when I do it will be to gain as much that I saved as I can and then nuke my account from there. And I have 150k in karma. Doesn’t seem like much but took me a long time to earn that and I was proud of it. But when RIF goes I am gone.

        Long live Lemmy, long live the fedverse.

      Haven’t fully deleted mine yet, but I’m already using it a lot less. Lemmy is more than good enough for bathroom scrolling and I’ve actually gone back to reading books before bed. Just finished one yesterday.

      Also deleted the 3 accounts I had - it’s most like a paid ad. People need to stop giving two shits about Reddit, it’s a corporation that doesn’t care about its users yet a bunch of its users, even former ones, seem to overly care about it.
