If the activitypub protocol can send data from one server to another, it should be able to delete it or find a way to disable viewing said data. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] mob@sopuli.xyz 8 points 2 years ago (1 child) Giving servers the ability to delete each others shit would be interesting to watch when an online war breaks out permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] squaresinger@feddit.de 1 point 2 years ago That already exists. The person who created a post or comment can delete it. But it only works sometimes, since federation is constantly not working correctly. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Hazzard@lemm.ee 1 point 2 years ago Eh, that's a mixed bag. Absolutely, one could setup shared delete requests, to federate a delete request, but it would be a bit of a lie as anyone could simply.... update their instance to simply ignore delete requests. For now, simply not having a delete feature is a more honest to the realities of the fediverse. There'll never be a "true" delete, even if they do eventually support one that's "good enough". permalink fedilink source parent
