Hello devs of Lemmy! I was wondering if you're going to improve the privacy of Lemmy as a whole, and make sure that it don't violate the GDPR. For instance what happens when a user deletes their account? The GDPR gives the right to the users to be forgotten (don't mistake this with the right to erase everything, a forum is allowed to have the data that the user has written as long as it's not sensitive, including name etc). I've seen posts where users are reporting that their account is not deleted when pressing the delete account button in the settings page. There is very little information about this.

The point being that the user name should be erased when someone deletes their account.

Would be great to have answers about this. And if you can also anwser some general about what you're going to improve privacy going forward.

Thanks!
