Yeah, there are some glaring issues with account and content deletion. Lemmy too, for that matter. If I delete something, I don't want it to be just slightly obscured and easily recovered, I want it to be erased, unseeable forever. But that aspect of privacy doesn't count in the FOSS circle jerk hive mind. "Keeping illegal revenge porn online forever is worth it so long as they don't tell advertisers what colour I like".
Nothing you send out to the internet can be deleted.
Yes, never put anything online that you might ever want to remove.
