I'm out.

Sup guys. traveling_gourmet here.

This is something that's been a long time in coming, but it's only sat here at 4:35 am with tests tomorrow that I realise that if I don't do it now I never will. I'm not really sure if this is worth making its own thread for, but Off-Topic is several days old and it's not exactly something I can stick in the question thread so...here we are.

Long and short of it is I'm deleting my account. It's nothing to do with this community, it's just that I'm becoming aware that Reddit is controlling more of my life than I'm comfortable with. I'm spending entire days sitting checking replies and waiting for things to respond to and that's really not healthy. I've tried going for moderation, but it seems like it's really all or nothing - if I want to regain some measure of control I've got to cut it out entirely.

I'm sorry to be leaving this community behind in doing so. While I know I'm not the most active or personable on places like Discord, I've been here three years, coming on four, and I sincerely like this place. This thread is here because I didn't want to leave without at least saying goodbye. And maybe it's not a final goodbye, maybe I'll hang around Discord a bit more or something, stay in touch - but I'm not going to be coming back to post. Overall I think this is a step I need to take for the sake of my own well-being, and I want to take it now.

Hopefully I'll have the time to read more visual novels now.

It's been fun, y'all. See you round.
