I’m pretty confused about one thing.
When deleting your own comment, there always stays a placeholder in its place. I noticed this with my own and other lemmings posts.
So far so good, but i tried to reply to a deleted comment by another lemming and above the reply box was the full comment the other user deleted.
I mean the full content of the comment that was deleted.
Is this the normal behavior in Lemmy or is it Sync?
I mean, i want my deleted comments to disappear and not just hidden and for everyone available to read.
Please try it out and reply to my deleted comment in this post. Just above the reply textarea you’ll see my deleted comment.
That’s probably people overwriting their comments before they delete them. I wrote a script to do this before I nuked my Reddit accounts.
TIL
I think i’ll just asdasd the content of sensible comments before deleting them.
For most comments i delete, i actually don’t really care, now that i think about it.
I was just surprised, to be able read the comment.
