I’ve been slowly moving away from Reddit, but I still go there occasionally. I was using it last night. Today, my account does not work. As I never used a real email address for it, there is no recovering it, but it’s weird that it’s just GONE. I had two other alts, both also gone. There was nothing that I saw in an inbox or message anywhere about “hey, we don’t like you, you go away now” or anything. Just POOF. Anyone else or just me?
Perhaps it’s for the best, just rip the band aid off and stop hanging around there anyway. Good times were had, but I guess it’s time to move on.
A vote for never looking back 👍
Yea my first ever account was before emails were required and it was nuked a while back.
Fuck Reddit and Fuck Spez.

it’s like they just started nuking all the old heads. by the time I left almost all +10 yr accounts were moderators or /[deleted]
It might be because it wasn’t linked to an email.
I haven’t really used mine in years, but it still signs me in when I need to pop in there to look something up.
I just logged into mine. no email address associated with it, and it let me in. first time I’ve used that account in probably 12 months and it still works. 🤷
and it’s gone…
after a period of inactivity they do delete your account to free up your username for use. your comments should still be at their addresses, the account will just read “deleted” or something
They seem to be going after +10 year old accounts, mine was permabanned for ban evasion with zero email telling me what comment or community it was for
Quite possibly. I’ve always signed up for any accounts with a disposable email, but it looks like one of mine that isn’t over a year old isn’t showing up. MFers.
If you’re still invested in reddit in any way you are fucking up
