    I am also one of the jump-shippers from Reddit.

    Is there a better action for the 12th of June for individual users that want to protest, apart from just not using Reddit?

    I mean, is there a suggestion as to if we are better to:

    • Not use reddit during the blackout
    • Log out of Reddit during the blackout
    • Delete our accounts

    I lost faith in Reddit so I don’t even mind deleting my account but I want my actions to have the most effect regarding the blackout.

      Using something like Shreddit and then deleting your account is probably most likely to have the greatest impact. If you’re in the EU, issuing a GDPR data deletion request is also likely to be helpful.
