Author-deleted posts are still visible to them and anyone with the url. No more loss of high-value comments with the OP deletes.

I feel that this violates the privacy of the users and their rights over their content. I know that posting on the internet makes it to be there forever, but still it should be an option to permanently delete a post. I suppose a user can still modify a post to delete its content.

This is awesome, thanks

That's great news!

In that case, yeah no need to add it.:-)

Yes I understand that concern.

To clarify a bit - when someone deletes their post, who authored it is no longer visible and the body of the post is no longer visible. Only the title remains, and the comments on the post.

That should remove all visible association between the author and the post and any accidental self-doxing, etc would tend to be in the body, which will no longer be visible.

Admins and mods can still see the author of the deleted post (so bad people can't escape scrutiny).

Yes, let's talk about how that would work.

It has much to do with my cross-posting FEP which I have... not written. It is largely in my head at the moment

Can Piefed see my emoji now?

@bentigorlich@gehirneimer.de I've been tagging you and @melroy@kbin.melroy.org about this but maybe there's a federation issue? Hopefully not.

Anyway the FEP is there, and I'd love to loop you two in to the discussions.

Hi there. At least this one got through, but I did noz get a notification about other posts I think

I guess, either:

Issue multiple Move activities, until all the posts are gone from one community then delete the empty one.

A special Merge activity that looks basically the same as the Move one (target and origin) except the things being targeted and originated are communities instead of posts.

I see your emoji!

Can you see THIS emoji? :attention1:

I typed it as : attention1 : in the markdown (no spaces tho) and PieFed converted it to an image. That emoji was originally published by literature.cafe, a Lemmy instance, but I can use it here anyway.

@rimu@piefed.social oh... No I cannot but we shall figure it out!

Edit: ah you're missing a tag entry with type Emoji. Check out the AP data on my reply to see it.

In the rendered HTML you actually don't render the image, it usually gets stripped for safety

Very nice!

oops, yeah, I only added the Emoji tag to top-level posts, not replies.

How about now? :attention1:

No, not yet I wonder why. I'm using one in this post so I can compare...

No clue! They look the same! Mine has an id, but I don't think that'd make a difference...

On the PieFed side, : frowning : is not being converted because PF ignores the tag entirely and relies on daily polling of lemmy/api/v3/site to get lists of emojis, which is a bit crap for NodeBB. More work needed!

Happy to take a look in the AM, it's nearly midnight here. I'm confident I'll be able to figure out why NodeBB can't load your emoji at least.

As for mine, the emoji itself is transmitted with the activity. It's just how Mastodon does it so I mimicked their implementation.

Got it
