This is my issue with redditors deleting all their content from reddit.
I agree with leaving because of the policy changes, but I think that adopting a scorched earth policy, mostly harms other users.
On some level, protest is about harming other people, at least mildly. Protests are frustrating. Protests are interrupting. Protested make it more difficult for people to do what they want.
This is by design. This is part of the point.
Protests that aren’t inconveniencing people are protests that can be safely ignored.
It’s all the better, though, when those inconveniences can be paired with a clear alternative for people to turn to to have their needs met.
