Like a lot of the new users here I too am a former Redditor. I was on Reddit for 15 years, it was my main source of news and information. I didn’t agree with many of the changes to reddit but kept on, till recently when I learned the app I’d been using “Infinity” would no longer work, I guess that was the final straw, but as the title suggests I’m glad. I started looking for other sources of information and entertainment which led to lemmy and the fediverse. I also found other content creators on platforms like patreon, substack, discord, mastodon,that I may not have found otherwise if I was still on Reddit. Just felt like sharing, thank you for reading this, hope you all have a wonderful day.
Consider deleting your account

Can you still do this if you’re permabanned?
Oo. Great question. Probably not.
But you can still submit a privacy act request for all of your data to be deleted. My understanding is that such protection exists in the EU, UK, and California.
can confirm you cannot. I can’t even edit my old comments
You could try deleting your account on Old Reddit instead. I know deleting while suspended works, but I’m unsure about being permanently banned. Still, it couldn’t hurt to try.
