Comment deletion error. (literature.cafe)
submitted 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) by Lacanoodle@literature.cafe to c/fediverse@lemmy.world
 

I just mistakenly made a comment on my post on lemmy.world and while it shows deleted on jerboa (up to date app) I can see it on eternity and attempts at deleting say delete failed (not up to date) but more importantly I can view the comment from my main too.

Is this a federation issue thanks to 0.19, a pre existing federation issue or something else? This could be a serious issue if someone copy/pasted their password or smth by mistake (as I nearly did).

It's the nature of the beast.

Think of it like hitting 'reply all' in a large email, sure the people who got the email might delete but they might also not.

At the end of the day, very little is actually deleted from the Internet anyway so we should always be mindful of what we put on here.

Yeah that’s always true
