I keep reading that former users of reddit are scrubbing their old accounts out of spite. So I wanted to know- What is it? Why are people doing it? Does it actually hurt reddit? What are some good bots that will do it for you?

He (and everyone else involved in these decisions) don’t care if anything interesting remains on the site. They only care if they make $$$ but scrubbing should help with that…
Oh I’m well aware that he doesn’t care about the content or its creators - he made that clear with his reaction to the protests. But redditors care whether or not the site they’re visiting has answers to their questions, funny memes, guides, advice, interesting stories, stunning art etc. and if that goes away, redditors don’t have a reason to visit reddit, and that in turn hurts the ad revenue. Less content, less clicks, less cash for u/spez, fewer investors interested in the “dumpster fire formerly known as reddit”.
