I never really cared about upvotes and downvotes, but I liked that my comments and participation meant something to someone at one time or another. I liked that when I posted a comment or asked a question people could look through my post history to learn more about me and answer accordingly. More than anything I miss my saved posts and comments and enjoyed going back to read through what was important or funny to me at a particular moment in time. I don’t have close friends or any family that lives within 1,000 miles so the connections I made through Reddit meant something.
I’m grieving.
I just searched my old username and found all my post and comment history, but the saved posts are hard to leave behind.

There were so many funny posts and comments that made me laugh out loud on lonely and sad days.
