So it looks like everything I posted last night was lost as mas.to tried to update to #Mastodon 4.5 👀

Here's where it gets interesting.Any post I sent last night that was visible to users on other instances remains there.I can't delete it, because I can't see it on my instance. Auto-delete won't delete it either, for the same reason.In terms of people's ability to control their data, this is a problem. It affects all #Mastodon users.It's also a problem Mastodon has known about since December 2022, when I sent them a suggested fix: https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues/22154Which they ignored, as usual.

If you don't want to find yourself in a position where you are no longer able to control your personal data that has been orphaned on other #Mastodon instances, you might want to make some noise about this.You may also wish to subscribe to the three-year-old solution on Github (https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues/22154) and add a comment to share your interest in having this resolved.

@tokyo_0 >If you don't want to find yourself in a position where you are no longer able to control your personal data that has been orphaned on other Mastodon instancesHello, welcome to the Fediverse, this thread will live on this instance forever because I hate it when random Mastodon users delete their posts in a thread and half of it is gone the next month, making it unreadable. I suggest not posting anything you don't want public on a public network like the Fediverse or the Internet for that matter. Thank you for reading my Tootâ„¢ post.

@tokyo_0 welcome to the M*st*d*n dev process, where silent contempt for outsiders is a feature, not a bug.it's been that way for nearly a decade. it's not going to change.
