#Deactivation

[wip]

Is there anyway yall could make deactivating not permanent? At least not for 30 days, giving users a time period where they can reactivate their account.

I’ve had so many people I know deactivate their accounts and regret it afterwards, or wish they could just shut down their account for a week because of being hit by endless hate anons. Most other social media platforms I know of have a period of time that you can reactivate your account after deactivation. I think something like that would be really beneficial on here.

Answer: Hey there, @automaticllamacycle!

So you’re right. There is currently no community-facing way that you can get your account back in the event it is deleted.

However, we are not too far away from having this technically feasible on our backend, and we don’t think it would take too much work to make it a reality. You’re right on this one—such a feature would be really nice to have, and we’re grateful you drew this to our attention.

Leave this with us—we will see what we can do. In the meantime, you can catch up with updates here at @wip or at @changes, should we have them.

Thanks for your question, and keep ’em coming. Happy weekend!

Hi guys.

before i deactivate, i wanna clarify i didn't know my private life and intimacy would be revealed like this. i trusted my mutuals & friends, but it turns out i'm getting exposed. i'm leaving because you're all jealous of me and can't accept the fact that i'm dating kim seungmin.

On Tumblr, you either die young (have your blog deactivated for openly supporting trans women) or live long enough to see yourself become a Seth Everman (derogatory™).

To be honest I really just wanna deactivate this blog and all my other social media accounts and just drop of from the face of the earth my mental health and physical health has been getting worse and I just wanna start fresh again like I just wanna leave and start over from the ground up again but I feel like the only thing that's holding me back is that if I do that after I do come back to this site when I'm ready and my mental health has gotten better I'm scared all my mutuals/friends/people I've interacted with and made so many good memories and have chatted with will either be deactivated/disappeared and gone or have archived their blogs or not be active anymore and then I'll end up with nothing but regret and loneliness like I feel like I always have since I was younger the feeling of people leaving you behind or the urge to want to talk to someone who has disappeared...it's tiring and scary for me to think about

So my FUCKING main Instagram account was deactivated because APPEARANTLY having a second account FOR SCHOOL is against Instagram policy. This might be my last straw.

Hesabı kapatabilirm.Yada tamamiyle baştan düzenleyebilirim bilmiyorum.Ama bu hesabı açma sebebim zaten genelde postlarımdan belli olur ve bu hesabın artık durma gibi bi gerekçesi kalmadı..dediğim gibi ismini değiştirip postları tekradan düzenlerim yada tamamiyle silerim..
