    good point, I think giving users some time to change their mind and then making the decision permanent would be a good solution.

    I can support an option to hide the name of your content from your account, kind of a “soft delete”

    Agree. a soft delete would be cool, with an option of deleting it later.

    but IMO in general, if an account is permanently deleted, all the data should go to for privacy sake.

    I think giving users three options to choose from is better, so that everyone can make their own informed decisions, according to their threat model. Some information (like the answer to a technical problem) doesn’t harm privacy that much, and keeping it anonymously is a net positive in my opinion.

    But as I said, my main problem is the ability to delete the comments of others by deleting the post. I don’t think a user should have the right to remove comments written by others.
