Do the advantages of deleting one's entire Reddit history outweigh the disadvantages?

I have previously nuked my first Reddit account because it felt satisfactory to be completely detached from a platform one considers unethical/bad. Though, I have garnered quite some history on a second account—because Duty Calls*, of course—and I'm considering doing the same.

However, I don't want to do it impulsively. I think I might be blind to some disadvantages. What do you think?

You post on Lemmy aren't safe from OpenAI either. They could just scrape entire Fediverse easily than Reddit.

The difference is that OpenAI’s competitors and open-source projects can also use fediverse posts.
