Hi all!
So, with the whole lemm.ee saga, I would like to be able to delete my whole comment history. I know they should get deleted from lemm.ee the moment I delete my account, but I think these don’t get federated, and all the comments I made back in the day under this account will remain forever in the federated instances. Moreover, once the account is deleted there won’t be a way to remove them. So I wanted to try and delete them first. Is this possible, is there a tool that could do this for me like the old reddit nuking tool?
In principle account deletions, post/comment deletions and edits to posts/comments should all get federated… but ultimately the federated model means that there’s no guarantee all instances that have copies will receive that or act on it. The fediverse doesn’t forget as easily as centralized platforms do.
