?? You want 'delete current account' to better state that you're about to delete your current account?
I have never known a third-party reddit app that had an option to delete your actual account.
The App Store requirements are extremely clear that if you have an option to create an account in-app, you need to also offer the option to delete it. According to our app reviewer (and, I reluctantly admit, the text of the requirements), even just linking to a sign-up site like join-lemmy is sufficient to require in-app deletion.
Ah, that makes a lot more sense. I don’t think reddit ever allowed third-party apps to create apps, so they must have made sure not to direct users to sign up on reddit, lest they fall afoul of Apple’s rules.
Edit: hilarious typo, I meant accounts but I guess they don’t let them make apps anymore either…
