Perfect
I generally only delete posts when I double post on accident. I’m happy to leave my stupidity on display because fuck it.
Sometimes I’ll downvote myself if that seems to be the popular consensus. Who am I to disagree?

That’s the spirit!
Same. Had to delete a mistaken cross post but that’s about it here.
On other sites though, it’s because corpo media can suck it.
Same reason. It just sucks when you accidentally do a duplicate post, delete the duplicate, and it still shows up for some because of federation. Like I deleted one and it was still showing up on Piefed.
Cuz I said some stupid shit and wanted it gone before anyone noticed.
Unfortunately deletes don’t always federate so it doesn’t help
More often than not this is the reason right here. I post, then go reload to see my post out in the wild. Sometimes it takes a minute to realize I must erase its existence.
I wish I could delete what I say in real life too tbh
I’ve only ever deleted one comment I’ve made. I was having a bad day, I was being overly pissy and inflammatory, and the comment didn’t add anything to the conversation. If I had been the mod of that community, I would have deleted it and possibly banned myself. Since they didn’t, I did. Once I came to my senses.
For the most part, though, I’m happy to leave my stupidity up for the future to see.
ill delete mine if:
-
it has any form of information that could potentially be used to personally identify me when I realize retroactively
-
i get embarrassed when I try to contribute to a community and get down voted to oblivion
-
why?
that’s why

WHAT DO YOU MEAN, "YOU PEOPLE?"What do YOU mean, “you people”!?
I regularly notice how some people simply delete their post because they don’t like the way people are answering to it. It’s fine they don’t like those answers, it’s not fair they are given the power to mute them.
I find that behavior annoying. Not because someone deletes their post. I mean, they’re free to do whatever they want, but because by doing so they also render the entire discussion unavailable.
Like if all the other participants were submitted to their whims.
Imho, a solution could be to let people delete their post but not the technical-something-whatever that made their post accessible to read and to answer. And so, no matter how shy or regretful the OP could ever be, people that have answered would not be dependent on their willingness to let them speak. And even if the OP was deleted other people would still be able to read the comments and maybe keep on discussing without te OP being involved.
There was a user or two I would explicitly quote their whole comment because of this.
Had an other user constantly edit his post to add points after I replied which was much worse imo.
The only time I ever delete a comment is if it’s within 30 seconds of posting it, as to not cause things like this.

I considered doing that too a while ago, but then realized it was more work & wasted time for us, right? While we could still see the whole thread risk being deleted because OP decides to? So I decided not to. Instead, I block the persons I’ve noticed doing that so I don’t to waste my time reading their posts anymore in the future and won’t risk wasting even more time trying to comment.
Simply put, since they consider it’s ok for them to delete everyone’s content who participated because they’re unhappy about how it turned, well, I help them stay deleted once and for all from my feed ;)
Usually it’s just that upon reflection, I didn’t look as hot as I thought i did.
Because I realize how stupid they are.
I’ve deleted a few, usually if I accidentally doxx someone or literally post the wrong place (like I intended to reply to one person but somehow the message was posted as a response to another)
