If that was possible, it is literally destroying information, much of it useful (more of it useless I know but what IS useful is hard to find on n other places. Why not export the data? Make an archive? Distribute useful content and curate it elsewhere.

Well said. Don’t be the bad actor in someone else’s story.

The amount of extra energy folks have for this is crazy. By all means, leave while making a statement, even if that statement is profanity laced. But that site is tearing itself apart just fine on its own, no assistance needed. When you start agitating on a platform that isn’t yours (and let’s be real, Reddit communities haven’t been user owned in a long time, you turn in to the asshole. Reddit may fail, may learn its lesson, or may slowly mutate into something radically different from what it is, but pour all your energy into a creative pursuit. Destruction is fun, but ultimately not very rewarding. Just my perspective.
