Do the advantages of deleting one’s entire Reddit history outweigh the disadvantages?

I have previously nuked my first Reddit account because it felt satisfactory to be completely detached from a platform one considers unethical/bad. Though, I have garnered quite some history on a second account—because Duty Calls*, of course—and I’m considering doing the same.

However, I don’t want to do it impulsively. I think I might be blind to some disadvantages. What do you think?

    The ideal scenario would be to download your data, then upload it to your own static website before deleting it.

    Here’s an example of it: https://www.rareddit.com/

    But you’d need a static site generator built to do that, and I haven’t been able to get a response from the person who made that website. I’ve tried posting about it elsewhere, and didn’t get any solutions.

    It should be simple enough for someone to make a template or instructions or an SSG for people to use. Unfortunately, no one has.
