Deleting your reddit content before migrating? DON'T, instead... (lemmy.world)

... go through your 'top posts', copy & paste the text into a doc, post it here, then delete it. Let reddit's loss be lemmy's gain!

Exactly, I've not really contributed much in the way of original posts but was thinking about deleting all my comments then thought.... imagine if there's some really helpful advice that's going to vanish, then expanded that to all the people migrating. Plus, it would be a big help with increasing content here.

Or just leave the old posts there and forget about Reddit. Reddit isn't going down because we left, it was never going to, regardless of how many thousands out of their hundreds of millions users leave. I don't see the point in flooding this place with stale content personally.
