I joined Reddit thanks to 3rd party apps, and when they turned their back on them I was out too.
I used one of those automated programs that used the old.reddit API to overwrite all my comments. I took a break for lunch, thinking to delete my account afterwards, but when I came back my account had been permanently banned.
So it was definitely like one of those “You can’t quit, you’re fired” type of situations.
From time to time I visit the site because of search results, but from what I can tell, all the main subreddits are filled with bots reposting the same content from 5 years ago.

Same thing happened to me. They noticed I started mass deleting my comments and I got hit with a ban on that specific account.
