how many of you have genuinely ditched reddit? (aussie.zone)

due to the rolling blackout... I think it's had its effect.

I think I am done with reddit.

it's a shame because as someone who doesn't use Facebook it was nice to have a sense of local community I otherwise don't get online.

I still think besides the few odd regulars who brought the vibe down every chance they could, it was a genuinely great subreddit.

anyway, I'm just curious how many of you are well and truly done with reddit? not even going back for a peak?

Before the protest, I completely scrubbed my post and comment history.

For the blackout itself, I closed the browser tab, uninstalled Infinity, and blackholed Reddit's domains on my Pi-holes.

After the first couple of days of the blackout, once the admins started seizing control of certain subs and booting out the mods, I went back and deleted my account.

Finally, I re-blackholed Reddit's domains, and also added them as an exclusion regex to my Whoogle searches, so they don't even turn up in my search results.

Fuck those cunts. Not one more bit of data from me again.
