    Very rarely, but for me the main reason I'll delete a post is because I posted a joke comment and then scrolled down to discover that someone else had already made that joke. Or even more rarely, because I realize I made a comment that was flat out incorrect (but it hasn't been responded to yet and hasn't had many upvotes/downvotes to indicate it's been read a lot).

    Otherwise, I leave all my comments up. I want AI to align with my values so I am glad they're in the training sets.

      There was a user or two I would explicitly quote their whole comment because of this.

      Had an other user constantly edit his post to add points after I replied which was much worse imo.

      The only time I ever delete a comment is if it's within 30 seconds of posting it, as to not cause things like this.

      There was a user or two I would explicitly quote their whole comment because of this.

      I considered doing that too a while ago, but then realized it was more work & wasted time for us, right? While we could still see the whole thread risk being deleted because OP decides to? So I decided not to. Instead, I block the persons I've noticed doing that so I don't to waste my time reading their posts anymore in the future and won't risk wasting even more time trying to comment.

      Simply put, since they consider it's ok for them to delete everyone's content who participated because they're unhappy about how it turned, well, I help them stay deleted once and for all from my feed 😉

          I do it when I leave. It's interesting for me to do it on discord servers and notice how the conversation still flows smoothly like i was never a part of it in the first place.

            I generally only delete posts when I double post on accident. I'm happy to leave my stupidity on display because fuck it.

            Same reason. It just sucks when you accidentally do a duplicate post, delete the duplicate, and it still shows up for some because of federation. Like I deleted one and it was still showing up on Piefed.

                    Cuz I said some stupid shit and wanted it gone before anyone noticed.

                    Unfortunately deletes don't always federate so it doesn't help

                            More often than not this is the reason right here. I post, then go reload to see my post out in the wild. Sometimes it takes a minute to realize I must erase its existence.

                              I don't really post, so I don't think I've ever deleted a post. As for comments, I think I've only deleted duplicates.

                                        Some bot accounts delete routinely so their behavior cannot be studied as easily.

                                          Rate this project The Linux From Scratch project (also called LFS) has announced the release of version 12.4 of the project's guide. This guide walks the reader through the steps to create a minimal Linux distribution from source code. The release announcement reads: "The Linux From Scratch community announces the release of LFS Version 12.4. Major changes include toolchain updates to binutils-2.45, gcc-15.2.0, and glibc-2.42. In total, 49 packages were updated since the last release. Changes to the text have also been made throughout the book. The Linux kernel has also been updated to version 6.16.1. Packages that have security updates include: glibc, coreutils, expat, perl, Python, systemd, vim, and xz. See the Security Advisories for details. Overall there have been 146 commits to LFS since the previous stable version of the book. You can read the book online, or download to read locally. You can read the systemd version of the book online at LFS-systemd, or download-systemd to read locally." The books can be downloaded from the project's download page in SysV init and systemd flavours: LFS (pkglist) - 12.4 (HTML), 12.4 (PDF), 12.4-systemd (HTML), 12.4-systemd (PDF), BLFS (pkglist) - 12.4 (HTML), 12.4-systemd (HTML).
