/c/Vent: Vent about your life here

I was perma-banned from Reddit after 7 years for mentioning facts about Elon Musk and his Boring Company's Not a Flamethrower contraption. No hate speech, nothing obscene or gory, just plain facts, with supporting links. I appealed twice, they denied my appeal.

I've left my account intact though, but have highly debated with myself whether to use one of the mass overwrite services to edit all my posts and comments into pure random garbage, then rewrite all of that again to say FUCK SPEZ!!!

From my understanding, they keep a backup of your previous comments before your edit, so it's necessary to overwrite it at least twice, or they can just flip the switch and restore all your mass edited comments.

The only reason I haven't done it yet is because my account still allows me to view communities tagged as NSFW, but hell, the only time I visit Reddit anymore is when someone happens to toss me an interesting link.

IDGAF if the AI has already 'learned' things from my posts, I probably partly corrupted it's digital brain anyways. Many of my posts were factual, some were random rants, and a good number of them were just lighthearted trolling.

If I stumbled into a post showing some sort of random roadkill or some nasty shit, half the time I might be like 'Are you gonna eat that?'. Yes, I might be partly to blame for why AI has such a poor concept of food consumption. 😂🤣

Obligatory FUCK SPEZ!!!

I wanted to since I left, which was in my case to read an absurd ban and never return.

I won’t go back, but I haven’t deleted the two accounts. Partly out of apathy based on it already being scraped, partly out of a hoarder nature (big part here), and partly for the off-chance to see some witty shit I wrote in an AI hallucination.

I want to delete mine. I've heard they undelete your comments though. If there's a way to destroy the data I'll do that instead

I've been here since Reddit is Fun went down. Been a little over a year I think and I have no regrets. It took some getting used to, but it's honestly been an amazing experience. After this long I don't even miss reddit anymore. It may be a little lonely here sometimes, but it's getting bigger every day and I hope you find a home here. And personally, I like the smaller size. Brings back the vibes of the older internet in a good way.

Something I need to do as well.

Obligatory fuck Spez!!!

Why not just use both reddit and lemmy? Why follow other ppl when reddit is still really useful? Why hinder yourself?
