I want to just delete my Discord, FB, Reddit, Second Life and other social sites so I can just be focused on myself. But I can’t because the guilt of seemingly deserting those I have left, will be hard to deal with.

    I never expected anyone on Reddit to stick around if they didn’t want to be there. I have a hard time believing that people there would feel deserted by you.

      True, I quit reddit 3 or 4 years ago after the API backlash and I don’t miss it and I doubt people miss me. My only social media is FB because all friends and families are on it, I use only Messenger and Marketplace though.

        You gotta quit Zuckerfuck’s Fascism Machine. Let them miss you. Be mysterious. Start another group - you can always just cave and rejoin anytime.

        What do you have to lose?

          Call me old school, but I just call my family. Video call, nowadays. My kids can talk to their grandparents for hours if they want to, tell them stories, show them toys, whatever. Better than any Facebook post.

      when i left reddit people made posts asking where I had gone to and they missed my comments and posts.

      It was weird.
