I was sad enough to know that all of your deleted everything are saved in lemmy and never truly deleted.

Another concern of mine; I was under the impression that while the posts/comments a user deletes on Lemmy are still there, or at least visible to the original author (and therefore on the server too, I guess, they’d have to be!), but not visible to other regular users, the content can be deleted by being overwritten, and that deleted posts disappear after 30 days . . . ? (very tired here, did I just contradict myself?) Anyway, that’s at least the impression I got from here:

https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/2977

and here:

I haven’t been here long enough to see if a deleted post of mine has disappeared after 30 days.

In another life I was on an instance where if I deleted something, it disappeared as it should, though I don’t know if it also got deleted from their server(s) . . .

@dessalines@lemmy.ml, could you please clarify this for us?

Some apps do.

But not on the web interface, I guess, whether desktop or mobile?

What Lemmy app do you use?

" . . . Element is being sunsetted . . ."

Is this just for the android app? What about mintchat on Linux Mint, which, I believe, is basically Element?

Ok, nobody told me not to, so here it is!
