I keep reading that former users of reddit are scrubbing their old accounts out of spite. So I wanted to know- What is it? Why are people doing it? Does it actually hurt reddit? What are some good bots that will do it for you?

    Oh I’m well aware that he doesn’t care aboutt he content or its creators - he made that clear with his reaction to the protests. But redditors care whether or not the site they’re visiting has answers to their questions, funny memes, guides, advice, interesting stories, stunning art etc. and if that goes away, redditors don’t have a reason to visit reddit, and that in turn hurts the ad revenue. Less content, less clicks, less cash for u/spez, fewer investors interested in the “dumpster fire formerly known as reddit”.
