Hello.

So when I was still on lemmy.ml, I tried to delete my posts/comments but most of them keep having them JSON error, then when I refreshed my account they somehow do not appear anymore? But when I manually inspected the communities that I was subbed into on another browser, some of my posts are still there.

Giving up after thinking that I just ignore it, I just deleted my avatar and banner, and deleted most of my posts/comments anyway. They seem to not appear when I am logged on.

Then, I somehow got onto the ‘Delete Account’ earlier this morning (just as I wanted to do several days ago), submitted the credential needed, and then the page redirected me onto homepage. But now when I did revisited the communities I was in on my .ml account, posts/comments are still there.

Did the admin just set it up so that my logins are just revoked, and will not purge and/or disassociate my posts and comments on my previous .ml account?

    This isn’t easy to do yourself: thing is, the way you identified yourself as being “you”, an asymmetric cryptographic key pair associated with your account, got deleted when you removed your account.

    If your posts and comments don’t contain any personally identifiable information (that is: no-one can tell it was you who made them) I’d just let it be. Otherwise this is going to be difficult.
