But this seems to claim it solves some practical problem with parties. I don't know what that problems.

I understood that. I'm asking about the problem with parties that this helps people fix.
That would be the ideal for meeting new people, would it not?
I've read the whole thing and I feel like there's something that's just assumed that everyone understands.
What exactly is the problem? Why do we care how many people know each other or don't? I'm so confused.
They aren't behind any login or anything stopping it. So yah, I expect they're already are being indexed.
Yes? An annoyance at worst
Yah. I wasn't thinking of that as "privacy", it's kind of separate, but I can see related. But federating a delete shouldn't be much more complicated than federating an add or edit. Mostly only an issue if an instance is defederated in between.
That seems pretty minor to me for less than a dozen images, but ok
I never thought of the right to be forgotten aspart of the right to privacy. They always seemed separate.
But technically federating a deletion shouldn't be more complicated than federating an addition. It would make sense to have the option when deleting an account to nuke all posts as well. It might not be perfect if an instance is defederated in between, but it should be pretty good.
The first and third are just features that will almost certainly come eventually. No worries.
The second strikes me as a really strange expection for public social media. Social media is inherently not at all private. These are all public comments and posts intended for everyone in the world to read. If you have something you don't want to be public, any social media is the last place to post it.
Bots wouldn't have that many spelling and grammatical errors.
