So that's it r/newzealand? (lemmy.nz)

So, I see r/NZ is back. That's it? What an anemic protest. I guess I'm honestly surprised more people don't care. I expected the protest to go on longer, but I guess I overestimated how much the average user cared about this.

Unfortunately, I think it probably means we won't see a lot of growth in Lemmy now. Shame.

Not really bothered what happens over there now. I’m no longer invested in their community. Yeah I’ll be poking my head back in over there occasionally I think, but lemmy is scratching my itch for scrolling and doing it in a way that seems less harmful to my spare time and mental health.

My reddit protest consisted of:

deleting all 10+ years of content and comments I’ve contributed over there
making an account here and supporting an alternative service

I’ve already opened a google link to something on reddit only to find it was deleted by the user. So I think the withdrawal of content is going to have a lasting impact.

If you used Power Delete Suite, please double check your comments/posts are really gone. There have been multiple reports that Reddit brings back deleted posts/comments.

Quite a few of mine came back suddenly when I checked them. I've since overwritten and deleted everything again.
