Comment on [PSA] Lemmy account deletion is a mess
deegeese@sopuli.xyz 3 days agoMy point is how could you ever count on deletion when the content is being federated?
Even if Lemmy devs made account deletion easy and cascade deletes your content, all it takes is one server run by an archivist and that content is never going away.
It seems inherently unfixable in a federated system, like trying to unsend an email.

Eh, I rather things be deleted from mainstream instance at least. Don’t gotta be all or nothing to improve the current experience.
