It just feels kind of gross having parts of me hanging out on the internet for too long. Like I haven’t been able to wash my hands/face for a while. I do it manually occasionally, but I have to block off a morning or evening for it now when I used to be able to do it with a couple mouse clicks then go off to take a shit or w/e.
Theoretically, you can’t. If text you posted federates out to other servers deleting it locally won’t delete it out there, I don’t believe.
So, once it’s up, it’s up, wasting evenings deleting your stuff won’t really stop it
This ^. A very big downside of defederation. Just be more concious with what you post, and change up ur typing habits.
