I do something similar.
I switched my outlook on life a while back.
I take somewhat Buddhist Lite approach to life and consider possessions as misery and so on.
I extend that to online conversations.
I just delete them and clear my history. I don’t feel everything I’ve ever written online, every message and every email should live online forever.
It’s a mental burden that I don’t want.
So I auto delete where I can.
It’s cathartic. I think I started doing it during my burnout nervous breakdown phase after exiting corporate life.
I found I’d write things on Slack and then delete them. The anxiety of having my thoughts out there weighed on me.
Thoughts and conversations should be transient, I feel.
Each to their own! :-)
