Rather than do that, I propose all rexxitors instead edit all of their posts and comments to say that they are leaving reddit for good to go to the fediverse instead. Such edits should provide links to major Fediverse sites and getting started guides, with advice for other redditors to abandon that place and join us here.

I would do that if there was a way to preserve the original comment, like a tool that just appends a statement at the end of the comment or beginning. I did answer a few support questions and I don't want to subject people to deleted answers

Deleting answers is the best way to show that Reddit runs on its users.

I disagree. Editing the post to be useless to Reddit, but reflect whatever message you want to tell (say, moving to Fediverse) is the best way to "show Reddit".

You can say more than just going away.

That's what they're saying.

They aren't arguing against leaving an "abandon reddit" message. They're arguing against leaving the original content alongside that message.

/shrug, no idea - lots of people here are saying "deleting" and meaning "deleting" lol. I advocate using edit terminology when you mean edit, delete when you mean delete. Appreciate the edit-delete clarification
