  Only you can see those deleted posts - nobody else can.

    You know, this is the sort of thing that users should really be made aware of…

  If you really want to make ture stuff is as gono as possible: edit it first. I can imagine that there are instances that dont accept delete requests for their own reasons but still update requests

  News to me that you can’t truly delete shit. I’m on board: what’s the answer to this? Why do it be this way?

    What do you expect when everything you post is instantly copied (“federated”) to something between dozens and thousands of other servers? They might not all properly process any deletions. :/

    General rule of the internet, nothing is ever truly deleted.

  Not sure if it really deletes it more completely, but first edit your post and replace it with a period and THEN delete.

    If you don’t trust deletion to federate to other instances, why would you trust edits to do so?

      There’s always a chance someone screenshots the page before you delete or edit, but seems like doing both steps improves the chances of it being fully inaccessible later.

      That link doesn’t work for me, and I’m pretty sure that’s generally how Lemmy works, you yourself can still see things you deleted on your profile, but other people can’t. Try opening your profile logged out (e.g. private browsing mode), I think you won’t see deleted posts or comments there anymore.
