While trying to log out or remove my account today I used the delete current account option. I had no idea this meant it was deleting my entire lemmy account! I was able to get it restored by a kind mod but all of my posts and comments are permanently gone.

Can we get a better explanation for this button in the app to prevent others from making the same mistake?

    The problem was that to remove the account requires you to know to swipe on the account. I just thought there should be a bit more warning considering it was talking about deleting it from the app and not deleting your entire account from the website
