Former Apollo user here - just signed up today. Iโ€™m looking forward to a long and prosperous time hanging out with you all!

Boost user. Switch literally today. I'm pretty sure it's still up.

Good job! I'm waiting to be in front of my pc first so I can nuke my posts/comments first, then it's all in for me too!

Amazing! I deleted mine a few days ago and it really is like a breath of fresh air.

Deleted my account yesterday after 9 years. Feels weird not to launch Sync as part of my morning wake up routine.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

It's definitely weird to start on a new site, I still need to look for communities to subscribe to so I'm basically looking at the equivalent of r/all for the meantime

So, I ran PDS (powerdeletesuite) last night and my comments/posts seem to all still be gone. I picked a random comment last night and opened the permalink so I could browse it logged out / in a private window. Still showing as gone.

Anyone know how fast they were restoring them? Wanna hold out with my account until I know my content is gone. 12yo account.

Thanks,

Are they still restoring? Only time I heard about restoring deleted posts was at the beginning of the blackout and it only affected certain big subs

Reddit was mass restoring deleted comments? Why am I not surprised? It's an almost comedic level of villany

It also violates GDPR which will hurt them financially because fines. Kind of ironic because this all happened due to them only caring about profit.

Sync failed earlier... I'm just exploring Lemmy and still don't know what I'm doing but it's slowly starting to make sense... Sort of.
