Hello.

So when I was still on lemmy.ml, I tried to delete my posts/comments but most of them keep having them JSON error, then when I refreshed my account they somehow do not appear anymore? But when I manually inspected the communities that I was subbed into on another browser, some of my posts are still there.

Giving up after thinking that I just ignore it, I just deleted my avatar and banner, and deleted most of my posts/comments anyway. They seem to not appear when I am logged on.

Then, I somehow got onto the ‘Delete Account’ earlier this morning (just as I wanted to do several days ago), submitted the credential needed, and then the page redirected me onto homepage. But now when I did revisited the communities I was in on my .ml account, posts/comments are still there.

Did the admin just set it up so that my logins are just revoked, and will not purge and/or disassociate my posts and comments on my previous .ml account?

    How are they gonna enforce it if you dont live in the EU and your server isn’t in the EU? Interpol? Well the US isn’t in Interpol, (edit: okay the US is in Interpol, I got it confused with ICC, but my point still stands) and I doubt the US would extradite for something simple like violating the GDPR. There is also Russia or China potentially running a spying instance to gather up any data they can. Your posts/comments are public forever.

      This I don’t know. They can always send fines, but cannot force actors to pay them or to comply. I guess they can block the service in the EU through the ISPs, and arrest people if they ever set foot in the EU?
