Another situation where a company profits off of people communicating with each other.

Now that I've been here a couple of weeks, kbin.social is chock full of recent reddit immigrants saying we need this, this, and this. Are these people going to do the programming? Nope.

We need to focus on posting, responding and communicating so that this place has more content.

People who will remain at an exploitative corporate website to avoid the inconvenience are not people I'm interested in trying to sell the fediverse to.

I joined several of those clubs just to see what was happening.

They were all the same thing. Cat pics, personal photos, and inane discussions.

And then left.

OC For those in the know about privacy laws and the such. What is a proper response to reddit's claim that they cannot remove all the information associated to an account without first the user removing all of their posts?

As the title says, Reddit replied to my GDPR request to delete all my data saying I had to do it first, which I suspect is in violation of GDPR law....

I don't have a solution to your question, but I started deleting my account annually so that it was harder to track me, spy on me, and sell my information.

Before I started doing that, I had an account with 900,000 karma. When you asked for your account to be deleted, the Reddit automated response was 'Are you sure you want to do this? After one month, all of your content will be deleted.' And that's what happened. If I look on reddit, my posts were gone. On google, I could find people mentioning my username but not any actual posts by that account.

TLDR: They used to threaten you with deleting all of your posts, and, based on my experience, they did exactly that with my old account.

It's kinda funny to see them flip to threatening to keep your content.
