Boost for Reddit is finally down. Can't wait for Boost for Lemmy to launch. So far I've enjoyed my time here. Thanks for keeping it going everyone.

I left the moment the blackout started. After u/spez AMA and the verge article I knew I was done. I’ve got the front page 5x in 6 years 359k karma. It’s hard not checking Reddit but I got to move past it

Same! Had several accounts that have made the front page multiple times. Nuked all of my accounts yesterday. With that much karma, you can probably get a pretty penny for your accounts.

Why would someone buy an account? I’m not saying they don’t. I just don’t see the point.

High karma accounts are used for ad campaigns.

High karma accounts to incognito advertise things, bad actors trying to spread bad ideas, and Russian/Chinese propaganda on a Western social platform. I've already checked out on Reddit, so I don't give a shit what nefarious things whoever buys my account needs them for.
