I did a similar thing (7+ years account) except I only had patience to do the last sentence, I don't think anyone reads these messages anyways.
As soon as the Apollo closed message popped up, I attempted to delete my account. There must have been a ton of like minded users because it took hours to get my account deleted. And then… I realized that I had an addiction. Nine years and poof it was gone. Definitely had some weird withdrawal symptoms… So I found lemmy!
Installed wefwef Saturday. Sunday wiped out two reddit accounts with ten years worth of posting and officially left the platform. In the process realised I had actually stopped posting and was mostly doom scrolling. Very happy with the decision
I did it about a month ago and haven’t looked back!
Anyone else doing the same be sure to request your data from Reddit before you delete it! (If that’s something you’d ever want to have)
Well said, I still have to delete my account
TD, FPH and other controversial subs are part of what the helped reddit keep its wild west charm, even if you hated them they were part of the site.
