They're judging me, aren't they?

Otoh sometimes people realize they posted something rude and insensitive, and are not the kind of asshats who double down on bad positions but instead prefer to take our lumps and try to do better in the future
not just 'whoop, someone made the same joke as me, welp, here I sit'

I don't know if keeping the usernames visible is a good or a bad thing at this point, but it kinda sucks for insecure people who don't wanna get roasted lol

Unless it’s legitimately a mispost (egregiously wrong place) I’ll usually just edit if I was wrong and let it stand for posterity so other fediverse users aren’t left wondering

If so, it's entirely possible to edit the post by crossing out or even erasing all the offensive words and adding or substituting an apology. "I've realized I posted something rude and insensitive here, so I've deleted it and will try to do better in the future."

I dont even edit my misspellings anymore. Take me as I am, dumb ass and all.

Sometimes someone says something awful, and I just go the fuck off on them. Paragraphs of refutal, logic argument, citations. And I let it sit for a minute, and go back and delete it because I just don't like my vibe and honestly what difference will it make?
But then I get upvotes because some users can see deleted comments, and it makes me feel pretty good
I do that as well, except I don't hit send and delete it. Sometimes I just need something let out and doesn't need it to be out in the public
Sometimes typing it out makes it sound way more stupid than I initially thought so why bother

You'd rather be exposed to unintended idiocy?

In a similar vein, I wish people who lose arguments could be better about leaving it up.
We’re all anonymous here so you shouldn’t let your ego get in the way of debating ideas and debunking bad ones.

I really need to make an undelete instance. It would be incredibly easy to federate and then just ignore the code that executes a delete when it receives it via ActivityPub.

I can't see deleted comments but I still upvote them because why not

I support this.
People need to deal with their own bullshit, and also understand that... the internet is forever.
Take some accountability and grow from a mistake, and foster a culture where its normal to be stupid and wrong about some things, and then grow... none of this bs 'i have never had a bad take' nonsense.
If you want something to be temporary, figure out how to say it in an actually temporary, disposable way.

Actually, this is one of the biggest longevity-harming issues with the way Lemmy works: people ask a legitimate question, it gets a great answer, and the original poster deletes the entire submission once satisfied. Access to even the responses seems to be totally cut off versus (Old?) Reddit in which you can still view the discussions if you have a link to the post. At least that's how I've been understanding it. I mean, I saw a notice by a Lemmy mod in a Q&A tech community once (can't remember which, but I can try to look for it) asking people to not delete their posts once they get answers.

From what I understand, this is more about legitimately good posts getting deleted and basically the solid info amid the responses getting lost/inaccessible as a result. Despite the decreased anonymity, the loss of information for the hive mind is severer than on Reddit, where deleted stuff can still show up in search engines, or something like that. I don't remember the details of how it works but it's a mounting problem with Lenny's design. Perhaps a better explanation by me elsewhere in this post: https://programming.dev/comment/24979223
