Reminder to readers: it's 2023. Do not self-report as being not-ok on a public-facing site. Even a throwaway account can be linked back to you. This may have implications for your insurance, your employment, and your relationship(s). I don't doubt the genuine good intent of the OP, but this is not a safe forum for this kind of discourse. Take it to Discord.

Bold to assume Discord is any different when searchable history is inevitable as the biggest criticism of people moving their technical support to it.

  At least when it comes to Discord(and Reddit actually), there are scripts that you can run that deletes all of your activity/posts/etc from the server. I am pretty certain that Reddit still maintains hidden logs of everything you do even if you have deleted everything from your profile, but at least this way it will hopefully be much harder for people to get into that info. As for Discord, I have no idea if they keep logs of everything you do but I would assume that is the case. On second thought, in the past I have had Discord server mods yell at me for things I'd posted but also deleted, so there is definitely still a record of your activities to some extent.

    Reddit may not need the hidden log, but plenty of Reddit scrapers will keep the text regardless of whether it is deleted at the source.

    Speaking of Signal, tomorrow is THE day it loses SMS support. Every person I persuaded to switch to it is going to text me "WTF" from whatsapp. A sad day indeed. Anyone have any alternatives?
