    I wonder if they’ve intentionally disrupted the ability to do it to stop the wave of people deleting their content…

    Don’t forget to edit all your comments first to say [removed] or [moving to lemmy.world]

    Otherwise all your old comments stay on the site but with the username of [deleted]. Posts too.

    If you need a tool to do this for you automatically, I think I’ve heard of people using Shreddit. But there are likely a few options.

      Oh yeah, good idea! Before this strike I only heard of Mastodon. Didn’t like it because it was so twitter-esque. I wasn’t even aware that there are other federated networks which are similar to reddit… If all of my posts and comments said something like “user moved to lemmy.world” I’d spread the word that there are alternatives.
