I saw a comment somewhere saying the title and had links but I lost the comment now. One of the links was going to raddle.me which is a Reddit like site

    Look at my other comment with the link. It’s saying that even if you delete your account the only thing that happens is that you can’t access it anymore but every comment and data is still in the database

      What about The Internet Archive? Search engines cache? Copies made by other people? etc.

      This is a public platform; don’t share things you don’t want to be shared. You can’t truly expect anything being deleted forever everywhere.

      If you don’t want it there don’t post it. The internet is scraped and copied and backed up. You can ask for it to be deleted but the company likely doesn’t own every copy.
