I occasionally open a Reddit link from search results because I am not paying enough attention, but even if I need something that I think can only be found on Reddit I am not touching it and I immediately close it if I accidentally open it. If any friends send me a Reddit link to a meme image, I don't open it. Instead I share links to memes on Lemmy. 😂
I haven't gone and overwrote all of my content (because I figure they are looking for it right now and I might end up fighting an automated restoration system right now), but if I ever open it intentionally again, that's what it will be for.
I'm fully done with it, no peeks. It's actually significantly easier to write off Reddit than most sites for me. Had this happened a little while later it might have changed though.
A subreddit for something I work on had gotten automatically shut down for lack of moderation (it was dead so 🤷) and I was in the middle of contemplating contacting Reddit to unban the subreddit and take control of it, but with Reddit's decisions I don't want to use the site anymore, even if they reverse course.
I am instead contemplating opening a dedicated Lemmy instance specifically for the thing I work on, and if I do end up following through on that the only reason I would go on Reddit again is to make sure that subreddit stays closed, permanently. Me and the other person in charge have zero interest in using Reddit at all (we are both third-party app users), and we work to make sure that nobody masquerades as "official" (it only causes us headaches) and fracturing our informational/reference material further than it already is.
