You don’t need to DELETE all your comments, you can edit them all. I used the PowerDeleteSuite. Set the options to delete my posts, but not delete my comments. I then had it edit my comments with a paragraph about Lemmy and moving to it.
This is a great way to advertise Lemmy, over the long term.
So far it’s at a staggering 7500 comments edited. All advertising Lemmy.
So that’s an option. Then it’s done and reddit is behind me. Lemmy all the way.
I hope this helps
Thought about doing this. I’m glad Power Delete Suite has this option.
Thanks for the suggested tool! Reading up on it now. For others interested.
Plan to do this within the next several days.
Good approach, but I’m personally not deleting anything. I’ve made some helpful posts and comments that I want to show up in searches in the future. If I didn’t have those, I’d totally take the same approach, but I’m all for archiving everything on the internet, and I’m not gonna let some doofus of a man change that.
Megachad here. I might do the same. F reddit!

Rip I wish I saw this earlier
That’s an amazing approach, thanks for sharing!
