       | EDIT: Oh. I should've copied the link to the post. I guess it's
       | gone forever. Geez Louise. I am not a smart man.
       | 
       | I just made a duplicate post since I lost the first one.

       | I'd say that users that would want this feature would also like
       | some sense of "security" that the post is actually deleted. there
       | is no sense of that.
       | 
       | another 2 cents :) How about letting us decide when it gets
       | deleted rather than the magic 7 days?

       | Hey HN!
       | 
       | I built this so you can easily create self-deleting blog posts,
       | which can be easily shared in your whatsapp/messaging groups.
       | This is useful when you don't want to directly post walls of
       | text, and want others to be able to easily share what you posted
       | to their other groups.

         | image + text can get some skeevy stuff.

           | destructive across multiple platforms.
           | 
           | Snapchat had a ton of underage nudes. 4chan's been a magnet
           | for hate speech.
           | 
           | I miss the anonymity of the early, 1990s WWW, but that was
           | the playful anonymity of a much smaller group of people. it
           | was a self-selecting group with a lot less of these problems
           | at the time.
           | 
           | what kind of use cases did you have in mind, OP?
