Not only is this a way for you to keep your stuff, inform you what reddit knew about you and in general good to do with services you use every now and then - it also tends to be quite expensive operation for tech companies that aren’t quite operationally mature yet.
In other words, strongly recommend making a request if you still have an account.
Good info but it shouldn’t be posted in this community.
The people downvoting you are shortsighted. This place is for discussion pertaining to lemmy.world. There is a general lemmy world discussion board. Also the one for reddit.
For former redditors who can’t seem to grasp this simple concept… would you like you see a video of an alligator eating a pet dog stay on r/WTF, or would you like that content misposted in r/awww or r/EyeBleach?
We have specific places for specific topics for a reason. This is not directed at OP, but people who are butthurt for OP and being unhealthy users for the community.
Downvote because something is off-topic, trolling, spam, or hate. Not because you disagree or don’t like an opinion. Conversely, upvote relevant content/discussion, not simply things you like. They’re not supposed to be dis/agreement buttons.
How do we request our data?
