      I shouldn’t say this, but whatever: It’s a “troll” tactic to do that since mods/admins can’t ban with content removal if the account is deleted (unless that’s fixed in .13?) . Admins can remove the deleted flag in the DB for the user and then do so, but mods can only remove items individually. Not that any of these necessarily warrant removal on their own, but not doing so in this case encourages this kind of “hit it and quit it” behavior, and this user is clearly ban evading.

      I’m not saying this as an instruction manual but merely as a statement of fact about how stupid Lemmy’s behavior is with regard to deleted accounts.
