I can see why they'd do that tbh. Being able to delete something posted in error is something that may not be guaranteed in the Fediverse. Once it's out there, you're relying on others to delete that cute picture of your cat with your shrivelled up little winkie clearly visible in the reflection of your TV.

It might just be the cynic in me but let’s be honest my cynical side is right %99.999… of the time and the rest of me is a vestigial organ held on by foolish optimism buuuuut I feel it’s to get all the benefits without giving back, the vast majority of all traction on a post is in the first few minutes and you cant comment on a post in real time unless you join their proprietary walled garden, it’s like free advertising, see a post you like in the fediverse? Oh no it’s already old and people have already made the top comments I guess I have to go to their app.
