It seems to be a feature of Lemmy to keep deleted comments, so they can be restored if deleted by accident. https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/2977

A few weeks ago they merged a change to purge deleted comments after 30 days: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/pull/3208

For users that want to delete their comment, it seems like editing it is a more effective option.

Was more thinking the api should sanitize those for normal people. Makes sense that they'd continue to exist in the database for restoration

Agree with the editing. Mods get a purge button also, which makes a bit more sense now
