Has anyone thought about changing all their previous posts and comments to something like, “This has been deleted in protest of Reddit’s privacy policy. Please use lemmy.world instead”? Will I get banned from Reddit (not by mods) if I gradually change my previous posts?
Rather than removing entirely, it would be great if we had a community where we could just upload our top comments to, and then redirect users from Reddit to your comment on a Lemmy instance.
On Reddit users would see something like:
Using pie fed here because it’s (probably?) less likely to be caught by some Reddit automod filter, I think other redditors might be attracted to it more, I’ve heard they abstract votes* to a different account from your actual account (slightly more privacy that way), and it’s good to spread out user bases among the fediverse instances.
You could do something similar with your top posts. Just repost it to the appropriate community and then edit the post on Reddit to redirect there through pie fed.
*Edit: Pie fed only votes with anonymous accounts for you when sharing votes with an untrusted instance. So not quite as privacy oriented as I had originally thought.
