I was just browsing a thread on c/nfl looking for new mods. There were multiple 12+ year Redditors there offering to help.

Got me wondering. There are 14,000 of us in this community. How many of us are ten year plus users who have just had enough?

Edit: I didn’t expect this post to be as poignant as it became. There are so many of you… I can’t reply to everyone. I’m an 11 year user and have modded something like 150 subs over the years. I’m really sad too, but I’m finding that lemmy has most of the content I’m looking for, just needs more comments.

The API was a big blow, but removing awards on past posts and deleting coin balances is really dumb.

    Been using it for about 12 years. I deleted all my comments, but haven’t closed my account (due to work reasons - I’m in a Comms position, and keeping tabs on all SM is pretty important). However, no new comments, up/down votes, shares, nothing of the like.

    My primary access was through Boost (Android), and I don’t visit it much except for finding weird tech-support items, reviews/comparisons, and a few other unique pieces of content that will eventually migrate elsewhere.

    Edit: I’ve also stopped scrolling and consuming personal content as much, now that I don’t use reddit regularly.
