I feel you on this and I am torn. the abuse by reddit centers around treating user content and the users themselves as an owned asset. burning your own content with fire is a valid protest with sort term pain and potential long term gain for everyone.

my question is, what happens when reddit starts to restore user content with no link back to the original content creator account? I have not looked at the current reddit ToS. Does reddit legally think they own your content?

search engine indexes eventually age out on dead content and, hopefully, 12+ months on "lemmy:" will be a thing.
