    Even misinformation? CSAM?

      i had to lookup what the acronym csam meant… c’mon - you know what i mean. i am talking about words, the context of the conversation. but to your first point, if a post had misinformation, backing that up so historians can see and have evidence of the behavior of this time. You can flag it but i think there is a lot of history that is washed away.

      but no - i dont mean illegal pictures of children - this post was about deleting help posts.

  Also it’s reasonable to think discussion forums are in some sense ephemeral

  This is 100% wrong. This isn’t Discord or chat. People expect forums to appear in online search results, i.e. be persistent.

  I have no idea what you are using to browse Lemmy because the only notification I get is a number next to my profile icon in web browser or Thunder. And that’s often delayed by several days so I frequently look through my own old posts to find replies because don’t get reliable notifications.

  I don’t think most people think of this to be ephemeral. First of all, this replaces reddit and we all know how valuable reddit was when searching for issues. Second of all, this is also kind of like forum, and not many people would think of a forum to be ephemeral. Not everything save-worthy has to be wikipedia kind of stuff.

  Uncheck “Send notifications to Email” in your settings. Or get a 3rd party app with a notifications setting.

    If it’s easier to delete the post guess what people will do.

      How is it easier to delete a post every time than to set preferences to not be emailed just once, then you never have to again?

        How do I do that for just that post? And how do I ignore replies for that post so I didn’t get any other notices?

      Your comment isn’t popular, but we all know the rule: “the best thing needs to be the easy thing”, since people will often choose what’s easy and fast vs what’s ultimately better. We see this in security all the time (hello-oo NPM).
