Looking to leave Lemmy and I’d like to erase my presence here if possible, can this be done? I’ve looked into it and from what I’ve seen, the suggested method is to just not post any more. Which is easy enough, but will I have to manually remove ALL content for all of my accounts in other to remove myself entirely from here?
Maybe you’re just in the wrong instance, and maybe you just need to block the instances you can’t bear dealing with?
You say you want a Reddit alternative and while this isn’t exactly like reddit, "it’s just a bunch of whiny children playing at politics. " is exactly how I would describe Reddit unless you block the top 10 popular subreddits.
Maybe try blocking the instances you get this vibe from, and move to one more suited to your tastes?
Wanting out of lemmy altogether is like wanting out of earth because China sucks. Just block the instances you don’t like.
For example, I don’t mean to pry, but judging from your comment history, maybe try getting out of lemmy.world and lemmy.ml as a start since the political views of the users there don’t seem to align with yours.
Might try that. Thanks for the advice. Got any instances that are nothing like .world or .ml that stand out?
It is hard to recommend anything without knowing what kind of hobbies you’re into, but picking something niche might work well. I am a software engineer so I picked .dev, which turned out not as niche as I initially thought, but being surrounded by likeminded people rather than the majority is a completely different experience.
