You delete comments here as well?
No, as a rule, but with a few exceptions. I have deleted maybe 10 comments and 1 post (and the post was sort of a test, it didn’t matter, I just wanted to see what happens when you get upvotes and delete the post - it was my kitten, and it sort of broke my post upvote count until I posted again, so useful information, same with comments, so idk how many I even have now).
I’m leaving my comments intact here because the platform needs that, and I am absolutely a team player, but I have drastically changed the way I interact so that’s an ok thing for me.
Eventually, when they get discovery sorted for small servers, I’ll make a secondary account on my own self-host server for more personal stuff, so I can have better control of my information. It just wasn’t something I bothered with on Reddit, I was a very small and largely insignificant part of Reddit.
Discovery is never gonna work on the fediverse. Info is too scattered. Sure, large servers will get discovered, but not smaller ones. They come and go, URLs change... it's a mess.
