I had two 15 year old accounts... nuked both of them. Reddit has been dogshit for the last 8 years anyway and has just been getting progressively worse year after year. It has very little of what initially drew me to it 15 years ago, and I've just been going there out of habit the last few years.

Deleting it felt freeing, honestly wish I had done so sooner.
