For sure, reddit became less transparent with the data retention the further their success increased. In the past they claimed that ip addresses on your account would be removed after 100 days except for the signup IP. I did the GDPR requests for all my old accounts. I have one remaining that I deleted all the content off of until I was permenantly done (which looks soon now).

I just really dislike being targeted for ads and tracked for companies purposes to “advertise” to you. I run a dns sink hole, VPN, ublock on all my devices and I know it’s still impossible to be truly anonymous online without being a weirdo and unable to live modern life.

I’m the sameway. I use firefox exclusively and have for years, love it, began using their password manager for a few years now and I’m thinking about an alternative to that I manage. I’ve already been a part of huge databreaches. I would sure hate for my passwords to be out there. I mean, it’s dangerous AF.
