At most I may consider “request delete” with no hiding in the UI, as that will be a more honest version of the delete function.

💯

a transparent edit option is much more clear nostr:note1lvzf4yrlwdg5dzkem7wsmsetj35cl2xthu0yq3k4c77e9shj9crqw077xq

yes agreed

I think that’s a good approach but just because someone can archive or screenshot your posts doesn’t mean you shouldn’t be able to delete them.

It's better to have the functionality with the notification that it might not be respected/work than not have it.

It’s weird because you presumably only use relays you trust somewhat so you should be able to delete. But on fedi DMs aren’t even encrypted so admins can see your posts and images but nobody seems to care about that.

Well the issue is anyone can submit your notes to any relays they want, so if someone was autistic enough they could just make a bot which automatically submitted your notes to a relay which didn't respect deletes. Or they could just save the notes and submit them once they are deleted.

But I still think deleting should be supported client side as most ppl aren't going to have autistic stalker bots.

amazed by this thread and the reactions and reponses

re: delete

Anyone can rebroadcast any note to any relay. Since a note which is valid is complete as is and there is no need of resigning or whatever to reboradcast. If you bitcoin, then think of a singed note like of a signed transaction.
