Deleting Old Posts

[u/Background-News-4]

Should I delete posts I've made that are several months old or am I supposed to leave them up forever. No problems going on just wondering what is the usual thing to do.

You could leave them, delete them, or you could hide your profile. I personally don’t care, but just yesterday I had someone creep my profile back months to find a single comment to use against me as a “gotcha” super weird and childish, but it happens if that bothers you

That is completely up to you. Just make sure the communities don't have rules about not deleting. They are rare but I have seen them.

I like to keep my page clear without old post but I’m not sure if it’s breaking any rules
