        Woah keep forgetting people can still see my reply even after deleting it. I didn’t want to spam OP since I basically copied my other reply that’s why I deleted

          Deleting something in Lemmy just sets a “deleted” flag in the comment on the server side, doesn’t even try removing the comment. You have to edit it for that.

          This was the best private alternative to Reddit we could come up with

            Oh alright thank you for the info didn’t know much this this works besides the basics. I don’t really post anything, including replies, that I wouldn’t on any other public forum so I’m fine if anyone can still it.

          Deleted it? I only see the one comment and no others beside mine.

          Did you make the other comment from an account on a different instance? Maybe we’re defederated on those.

            Oh I didn’t answer twice on this specific post but on another one that OP made. There is another reply on this post but its from a different person so yeah its probably just a federation issue but aye if you guys can still see it hope it helps.

    I recently had to transfer phones and do this.

    I don’t think there is a way to export a file as usual.

    What I did was create a Firefox account using a fake/alias email through SimpleLogin just to backup the bookmarks. If you don’t have any privacy concerns then just using your usual email to create the account and logging in to Mull/Firefox that way should do the trick. Granted, I don’t really know how well that worked since I haven’t logged in to restore them, because I didn’t intend to, just wanted to save them. But I think that’s the only way on Mull. I hope someone else knows a way though.
