So I moved from feddit.de to lemmy.world and wish to delete my account on Feddit but I have a few posts there that will be useful to others, will they get deleted with the account?

This is a support question so would fit better at [email protected]

Nope they won't be deleted. They'll be orphaned though.

That said, people should more from lemmy.world, not to it. ๐Ÿฅบ

Agreed! I decided to join a smaller instance not to overload an already overloaded community!

What was wrong with feddit.de?

[โ€“] c0mplexx 0 points 2 years ago

It feels like it rarely updates(?) so a lot of newer posts even on the community i moderate just didnt appear
so far i dont have that issue on lemmy.world

Even if they're deleted from feddit.de, they'll be still fully accessible from other instances. But whether they'll be deleted or no inside that instance, I don't know.
