Well for one thing a user is prevented from deleting their account when banned. I'm pretty sure this can be considered a violation of the law.
Email works the same way. Once your data is received by the other party, you cannot delete it.
Public mailing lists have a very similar behaviour to the fediverse's. I am not aware of any credible GDPR cases against those, although it may happen down the line, we'll see.
Thats a good point. An instance could comply if there remains a way to submit a remove my data form to the admins. But other instances may also have or retain data with Lemmy being a decentralized network, our data is all over the place, there is no easy way to really be forgotten on the fediverse and neither a way for law enforcement to fine every single instance.
