Google executives acknowledged this month they need to do a better job surfacing user-generated content after the recent Reddit blackouts.

    Unfortunately many users have abandoned and deleted their accounts, rather than maintain control and authority over their posts.

    So when reddit restores their comments, in spite of the fact this contradicts reddit’s own terms and conditions as well as Californian and European law, users won’t realise this.

      I used the power delete suite to leave a nice explanation of Lemmy and ways how to migrate as well as a last happy fuck u/Spez on my main account.

      My NSFW account has an even more elegant solution: Each and every post or link was edited to a highlight reel of the 2 girls 1 cup video, with no warning whatsoever.

      Both accounts have been abandoned in this state, good luck restoring the OG content.
