deleted data/deleted accounts fill me with such.... lamentation
deleting files from my computer is unbearable for me, and the loss of an entire instance is.... painful

@lizardsquid it's not lost, at least not if it federated.

@lizardsquid I still get sad about stuff I know is missing that I've drawn years ago and haven't looked at since while I could.
As for accounts, it's a little worse for me with lewd ones because I often don't know the reason why. It could be not caring or fairly innocuous, but then it could also be burning stuff to the ground because someone found out...
Maybe I'm paranoid to think that way.

whenever I've abandoned accounts before, I've just left them. Maybe I said goodbye, but usually I didn't.
I just stopped. And I left the account sitting there, always available but never gone.
The only exception to this was my websites, which I lost because I stopped paying for
Both of them I never thought to make backups until it was too late
