Nothin

Might hide it from yourself 🤣

lol was wondering why that button was there. It dis successfully remove it from my feed but guessing not anyone else.

It’s like a don’t show me button

Kind of like a bitcoin transaction. Once you broadcast it you can't really take it back

Deletes the note from the client, but everyone who uses another client can see it because the relay didn’t delete it

To be fixed?

Naw, the inability to delete is a feature, not a bug

I see

You cannot edit / modify

I’ve said some stupid and regrettable things on nostr, and there’s nothing I can do about it 🤣

I will continue to say stupid and regrettable things that I will be forced to live with.

Unfollow now if you want to avoid them 😀

Dude that’s WHY we follow you

Man, had to follow hodlcuban with that sales pitch

See, I regret this gif. Nothing I can do 😂

Owning it!

😳😂

Zapped this⚡️💜 ⚡️

Makes you feel good, assuming you’re naive 😂

Cant even gif properly

🤣

Are you going to delete it? 😂

Yes, is it gone now?

Definitely not.

The internet never forgets. "Deleting" a note only increases the incentive to hold on to it.

Placebo Effect

It’s kind of like looking in the mirror and thinking you look good so you assume everyone else thinks it too. You can “delete” it locally, but it’s not really gone unless all relays delete it too. Sooo probably not gonna happen.

I'm getting ratioed so good on this note, well done all, time for me to go to sleep lol

pretty valid question tbh

Editing might be good, too many goof ball posts from hitting the send key too early

If you propagate the deletion event to all relays, it sometimes means that the note disappears from most clients.
