Dumb question for the Lemmy lawyers, if enough redditors joined could a class action lawsuit be filed to be paid for their content... Or is that so outside of the TOS that it's not worth considering?

A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I just spent a while today deleting all my posts and comments. At this point they'll probably have plenty of copies of it, but at least the content is not up for them anymore.
Just trying to see if I can survive without an account there (the "forum fediverse", if that makes sense, is getting better and better) and then it'll go to the same place my Twitter and Facebook handles went a while ago.
Yeah, several months ago I used some service to go through and wipe all of my comments and replace them with garbage, and then I deleted my account. Goddamned shame. I was a Reddit user since 2008 or so, though I haven't been active there since the rise of /r/t_d. They really took so much goodwill and popularity and made a point to flush it down the fucking toilet.
Would users licensing their comments and posts help?
Of course, you can check the licensing terms of all comments and posts in the EULA:
