You’re saying there is no point, and the comment below agrees with you, because the only point is that it removes threads and that’s getting old.
No it’s not getting old, that’s the entire point of deleting posts. Reddit should not get post traffic through google for something I did, and I can take that away. Me alone won’t have a big impact, but if we all do it Reddit will have more struggles.
In order of efficacy:
Don’t post to Reddit: this is what reddit needs to keep going. Reddit doesn’t produce anything.
If you have popular posts people come back to (like help communities) delete them, this still drives traffic and app downloads for reddit.
Commenting/upvoting/downvoting on posts drives engagement. If you have to visit reddit, don’t click on votes and don’t comment.
A reminder that reddit is still struggling to IPO and sell off, in large part due to the.exodus.
