I don’t want to block a community, I want to hide all from LemmyNSFW in case new communities keep popping up. I don’t want it on my main account, I have a porn account for it.
I personally miss understood the fedivers and had multiple accounts on different instances. Currently I am only using one. I guess that is part of the dip.
The original meme is straight up Nazi propaganda. The Nazis and fascists in general are big on enforcing a correct view of what good art is. Anytime there is someone who has a very negative view of modern art beyond simply not caring for it, it’s a red flag. Those sort of people are either vulnerable to fascism or are already fascists.
I guess I’m doing it wrong then, all I see are days old posts about how this place isn’t reddit and how people are délétion their reddit posts, and how life without reddit is si much more betterer. REDDIT! Where are the tits?
The fact that Reddit can still tell you that the user deleted their account is proof that not all of that user’s data in their systems are deleted. It may just be a flag in an account that marks them as “deleted”, and so whenever data about that account is being retrieved, their API server will look at that flag, and tell the recipient that the account is “deleted”. People in the software industry calls this “soft deletion”.
I learned in SQL class that you never ever hard delete data when there is any alternative. On Facebook and Twitter you get a whole month to change your mind before your account can’t be recovered.
I’ve heard of people using Facebook for free image hosting, because even if you delete the photo, if you keep the URL where it was located, it will stay there forever. I’m not sure if this is still the case.
It was often said that to properly clean up all your reddit data you should edit your posts before you delete them. Likely the edit will change the record in-place in the DB (as keeping a full edit history would be a nightmare) and deleting the post likely just sets a flag.
I’ve wondered about this quite a bit. If I were a fucking asshole like spez and wanted to defeat edit/delete scripts, I would set it so there’s 2 entries, one is the original comment and a second column for an edited value. Everytime there’s an edit update the 2nd one.
I had the idea to start all my comments with gibberish, and then edit with my actual comment, but that got a little tedious lol.
