I sure thought I was at the time, haha! But I was not too clever about it. Had I taken half of each coin bin every time, my gambit would have been successful for far longer. As it was, because I emptied them completely every time, it wasn’t more than a few months before maintenance caught on and installed different locks.
I manually deleted all of my comments from the past 13 years because I don’t trust an app to complete that process. It took a long time, partly because I revisited a few threads along the way. I’m feeling great about my content being unavailable to Reddit, regardless of whether anyone cares or misses it.
Yes, I do miss Reddit. No, I will not go back. Not because I don’t find any value in it – I do – but because my personal sense of justice gets in the way of wanting to contribute any longer. The time I used to spend scanning Reddit for new information or drama or funny anecdotes is now spent thinking about how I can contribute to my community in other ways.
I did this while at my private religious boarding high school. Absolutely raked in the dough.
I am not ashamed.
I am not convinced that our world needs more human beings.
I’m refusing to open reddit for any reason. A click is a click, and I’m feeling selfish about things.
Never got caught!
