I thought the point was to remove the valuable content, not the cost of resources to Reddit? Valuable content means consumer views, and consumer views attract advertisers, and advertisers generate revenue, which Reddit does care about. If I’d actually generated any content of lasting value over there, I’d delete it and repost it here.
