I'm currently trying to delete my Pixelfed account (for now at https://pixelfed.de/Jena) and here is the warning I get:
Warning: Some remote servers may contain your public data (statuses, avatars, etc) and will not be deleted until federation support is launched.

Sooo it this a server issue? A Pixelfed issue? is this just to cover someone's ass, or shall I be worried?

@jena it’s the way the Fedi works. Some copies of your posts may stay alive for some time on other servers and no one can provide any guarantee that it will be removed everywhere. It’s not really Pixelfed-related.

@ombremad ok thanks! The wording means "federation support is not launched". Dammit.

@jena this sounds like an old leftover honestly. I’m not sure what else it could mean

@ombremad @jena the discourse around pixelfed rn is so confusing, like some people say there is a security problem on their side and so on, others that it’s just the way fedivers (activitypub) works and we should actually understand this better, because we have a misguided notion of privacy on fedi as a whole. I’m quite LOST 🤯

@PeacefulEdna @ombremad I feel this post is quite didactic about what the problem is, security wise, and from a leadership point of view. https://fokus.cool/2025/03/25/pixelfed-vulnerability.html

@jena @PeacefulEdna I agree it’s definitely helpful. About the bigger picture and context leading to the point everyone’s fed up with Pixelfed’s founder, I’ll add this: https://dansup-open-letter.github.io/appendix/
