Finally fucked off from reddit

I don't know why I bothered to keep staying there for so long, probably cause of the games and sports I've been following but what did it for me was a shitty self-depreciating meme about fictional women not wanting them irl.

I basically disagreed and said I felt confident enough that wouldn't be the case and then got accused of not understanding the joke (nigga said skill issue? How terminally online do you have to be 💀), obviously I did I just thought it was corny cause I don't do self-depreciating humor.

Sorry not sorry I have too much self respect for that lol 🤷🏿‍♂️

So proud of you.
- Thank you 🥺🙏🏿 I honestly gotta start being better about my mental health
  
  Make sure you're strong, so you're ready when we march. ;***
Good call. The internet (reddit especially) loves self-depreciating humour. But if it isn't your bag, you shouldn't feel obligated to play along just to "fit in." Kind of defeats the point of self-depreciating humour when others are demanding you belittle yourself for their amusement.
- What else can you expect from a cesspool like reddit....it's not like I didn't know I just don't know why I stuck around for so long.
Did you use anything to delete the messages on your account before actually deleting the account itself?

Been wanting to quit for a while.
- There's not really much point to that, except for I guess the ritual of deleting everything. They almost definitely keep all the 'deleted' data on their servers, and so do archive websites and dedicated reddit archives like reveddit.
  
  I was going to ask, What's the rationale for deleting posts? Opsec, maybe? I can see why some people would want to hide old posts from general public consumption even if the server-owners still have the text somewhere.
  
  yeah it seemed pretty pointless as i went through deleting stuff (anything containing key words related to geopolitics, like capitalism, etc. at least - i never talked too much about that stuff on reddit so others may find doing even this to be time consuming). rather, i edited them and replaced them with 1s and then deleted them. but it gave me more peace of mind and at the least perhaps made it a bit tougher for background check companies if their data gathering and capabilities advance to being able to piece stuff like that together.
- If I recall there is an extension for Firefox (could be wrong) that mass delete comments/posts for reddit but I hadn't used it on this account, I probably will later I just felt so annoyed I was just liked fuck this
  
  Just went ahead and deleted my profile after searching for key words and deleting specific posts. Decided not to use an extension since it looked a bit dodgy. All manual and it took an hour, but I'm finally reddit free. Thanks for the encouragement.
- My 45k karma account has been inactive for over a year now lol.
Yesss lol

I just left as well. Been a lot better and had more engaging interactions on the internet since
- Yeah I've found here I'm not getting anxious every time I get a notification lol.
  
  Right? Here I get excited and the regular 'Ole dopamine rush, on reddit I'm preparing to he shit on and lose 500 karma because I said "hey maybe Xi Jinping isn't literally throwing babies out windows" lol
I've been trying to get my whole account banned so I don't have to manually delete all the old posts. 3 subs so far banned me for being a meanie bo beanie to gamers, blue maga, and zionists. Basically begging for them to kick me off at this point.
- Uncritical support to comrade Shinji in his pursuit of getting banned from reddit

You won't miss them.
- Honestly I already feel better not having to constantly roll my eyes at the stupidity, it's also helping me limit my screentime on my phone
