"A bit" is an understatement, that title is complete clickbait garbage

I wouldn't go so far as to call it "terrible for privacy" but yeah, that is a flaw.

The fediverse caught regulators on the back foot, as new tech tends to do. Yes, legally speaking they admins should anonymize or delete the modlogs and comments/posts, but is it technically possible on lemmy considering content is distributed across multiple instances? No idea. Your best bet is to email the administrators of your home instance. Also mind GDPR rights only apply to you if you're a citizen of the EU.

I am not a lawyer, but I am very sure that is a violation of the GDPR and highly illegal.

Sadly not. GDPR mandates that user content be deleted or anonymized and replacing your username with "Deleted User" seems to satisfy this requirement, even if everybody knows it's you who sent them. FWIW Reddit doesn't delete your comments either, but at least they don't prevent you from deleting them via a script.
