Nuking your comments doesn’t hurt Reddit or Spez, it just hurts other users who are looking for the answers that you gave. If you want to leave Reddit, it’s better to just leave
While as a user it sucks that is exactly the reasons people do it. It takes the value away from reddit, if the content that users want to see it not there people will not go there.
What I find the best compromise is users that take their comments they had on reddit and post them again as it’s own post to lemmy with the context needed. While not perfect the information is at least not lost completely and a google search in the future might actually bring someone to a lemmy instance instead of to a corporation like reddit. But that is obviously a lot of work to do, especially if you have lot of helpful comments on reddit.

As I posted in response to another comment along these lines:
By hurting potential users looking for the naswrdz you’ve diminished the usefulness of the site.
It’s a long play. frankly nobody wins and everyone loses.
The only answer I’m looking for is how did you manage this typo 😉
(Also, you’re right)
I haven’t got a goddamn clue. I’m not even sure what I was trying to type? Content? Information?
Wait. Answer!
I don’t care if nobody wins, I just want spez to lose
Yep. Fire Steve Huffman!
the point is to devalue Reddit so people won’t go there. And if people don’t go to Reddit anymore, who do you think it’s gonna hurt?
