Sorry for this question here but how can I delete my account on linux.io?

I can sort this for you. I’ll delete the account later this morning along with all posts etc.

many thanks

@j0nnymoe prefer we rename the account, change the email, and lock it, rather than delete post history, in case someone references topics the user participated in initially, thoughts?

I agree. We shouldn’t delete the posts but perhaps anonymize.

I wonder if discourse has an option to delete the account and leave the posts in place but show the author as deleted

for now, i locked the account, disabled emails, and changed the name. I did not have access to remove/change the email.
