Request feature: Export user posts

Could you add an option to export posts?

Posts exist on SW servers for as long as a profile is active.
I'd like to have my own copy of posts so I can go through them 10 years from now and reflect on how much progress I've made. Or cringe at some of the dumb things I've said.

A lot of social networks have this feature now. I don't want to make hundreds of new posts only for them to all be gone if I delete my profile.

Perhaps you can also add an option to import posts. If someone deletes their account and returns in the future, they can import all their old posts if they want.

YES!!! EXACTLY!!! I have always said this and it upsets me that we don't have this. I've written 3,130 posts in here and I would love to keep those to look back on and maybe even make a little book for my own use and entertainment. I sure would hate to leave lose all those if I left and I think that's why they don't have that feature because they figure you won't leave if you have so many posts on here you would like to keep. I'm really upset that we don't have that feature. If SW ever shut down, all my work would be down the drain. I've had a lot of people tell me that I should make a little book out of my posts and I checked with Administration about this but they told me no that's not possible they don't have that option. And I also thought if anything ever happened to me, I could leave those to my family. This is the one feature that I would love to see added more than anything else. It would really mean a lot to me.

I want an easy way to nuke my profile and its entire history.
