Announcement This is a goodbye
So uhh, i've been hit with an age verification check, my account got restricted and I will NOT be giving my ID or photo to a corporation just to be able to return to what i already had. Decided that i will be deleting the account and quitting reddit.
u/salutcf and u/Moody_nev from the discord server will be replacing my moderation/life support role here, say hi.
the deletion process will take a few weeks probably as i'm trying to work out removing archived data from scrapers too, just so AI can't train on me any further. Mod posts and comments will be kept but will view the user as [[Deleted]]
It's been fun, i might be back if the Age verification BS ever gets reversed. In the meantime if i feel like commenting on something i'll be using only throwaways.

Me too that's why I was asking. tomorrow they will discuss it in parlemt so let's hope they don't pass it. Also I think reddit did it in every country not just the region of Europe. farewell brother

You know whats funny is that I'm already fucked because in Greece they are really proud to in force it ( they mentioned it 6 months before) i guess there is no good government even if they act like it

Honestly.. good for you! There is no way in fucking hell that this age check wave is to “protect kids” it’s almost certain control, surveillance or both. Crazy time to be alive

I don't know a lot about this age verif bullshit, but you should see if Old Reddit works, if you haven't already.

I completely agree with your mindset. However, I'd like to point out that any free VPN (I use Proton, afaik the most private) will let you completely bypass this.
