I just came from another discussion on whether it's a good or bad thing that others can still see the username on some Lemmy instances even after comments get deleted. What do you guys think? I'd really hate to be the person in that image who would likely be flooded by DMs asking for solutions.

Deleting your Lemmy account will however also remove your username off posts, I think.
The history is likely saved forever. And an instance could be modified to not respect the update and deletions pretty easily
Sure, but it would border on illegal. At the very least, they would have to be far more carefull about GDPR and California law.
Not sure that's true. I would think you would have to contact the instance owner to request to delete your data. And you'd have no idea they were even federating
When you send a gdpr request to an instance, it is required to forward it to all parties it shared data with. So all instances it federates with.
But I am not talking about gdpr requests but data usage. Intentionally not removing data a user requested to be removed would get you in truble with the legitimate use (part of consent) requirements.
This is the reason I didn't delete my reddit content. It's very annoying when the only post/comment related to my issue is on reddit, and it's been deleted. I don't want to be a part of that problem.
This thread is great. I love how people are arguing against deleting your Reddit history by comparing their own history to the content in the Library of Alexandria. The Reddit hive mind and subreddit echo chamber had a lasting effect, it seems.
