MODERATORS
Just deleting does not hurt Reddit. Reddit stays useful and continues to benefit from your contributions. Removing the content inconveniences those uninvolved users who now have to find information elsewhere and have no reason to linger on Reddit.
I don't want to discomfort uninvolved people in my online activities. The relevance of my posts will decay over time and will be forgotten or seen as not relevant. That's fine.
On the other hand, Reddit has one less user to show advertisements to.
If everyone complaining would just delete their accounts Reddit would be in serious trouble. If everyone would delete their content then everyone would be sad.
