Please don't expect the community to give you answers to your questions which you then delete right afterwards. Those of us who put time into answering your questions are not doing so just to serve your personal needs, we are here to help build a community knowledge base that others can search and reference.

This has become a chronic issue with Lemmy and its starting to feel like it's a waste of time to answer questions.

or maybe a feature where posts cannot be deleted past a time period + amount of engagement.

    These would have to be added to Lemmy development, because currently I can delete a post of my own on a community on another instance and there isn't a technical way to prevent it. Reporting and banning for behavior is tricky too unless you manage to remember the username of who posted it.

    So, that's an uphill battle at the development level and the moderation level.
