Hey everyone, I just wanted to thank you for the lively conversation and thought-provoking insights.
We don't have to agree on every point (or at all), but I've decided to synthesize a lot of thoughts and ideas from these conversations into a blog post: https://deadsuperhero.com/2024/03/economic-musings-on-federated-networks/
Software engineer full-time ~70k/year, lemmy dev 24k/year. You should look into the mirror.
And it's not that the devs won't fix the issue but there are other issues with more priorities than this. Europe is not the only continent. So just like any other FOSS projects, wait for it or smash money if it's really important or do it yourself.
Btw based on Nutomic's comment, it's fixed next release if you bother to look before making 2 articles back to back.

Unfortunately there was some miscommunication in this issue and we failed to get to the root cause. In fact the Lemmy backend has an option to delete all content when an account is deleted. This used to be the default behaviour but was changed in 0.19 so you need to set a parameter delete_content. We failed to add a checkbox for this parameter to lemmy-ui.However the checkbox is added now in #2385 and will be included in the next Lemmy release. Other frontends and clients may also need to adjust the delete_account api call.
