I would like to know if there is an “official” way to set an account as disabled. For now, I am plan on posting this on Asklemmy, changing my password to some random letter that I won’t remember, and then logging out. If I’d like to come back later, there’s a chance of my account being revived through the “forgot password” process.

I am leaving Lemmy for good. I have spent a few months here, and the first few months were nice and positive. But now it feels much more Reddit-like. Most active communication here is happening at posts that I find negative. All this negative stuff is detoriating my mental health. I’d instead prefer to stay happy and remain ignorant until I personally experience the issues being raised here.

Of course, a lot of people will disagree with this approach, and they are likely already coming up with comments to post on this thread that I’d find rude and thus negative. But I’ve seriously had enough of it.

I have a heavily filtered Reddit with a home page filled with people like me. The communities they are part of either don’t exist on Lemmy or are not sufficiently active. I will be active with these people until the old Reddit front-end reaches EoF. Please prefer to answer the first paragraph over the rest.

PS: please don’t judge me by my comments on my profile. I am a teenager and my personality is still maturing. I cringe at most things I do the next day after doing them.
