Allowing the recovery of users accidentally deleted by moderators - A new issue for @pixelfed
It would be helpful if a user deletion could be undone, as is the case with Mastodon or Lemmy. It would be sufficient for a user to be restored within a certain period (30 days?).
An alternative could be to add an intermediate stage between the active and deleted accounts, namely the blocked (or frozen) account. This way, the user and all their content are made invisible until the administrator can get feedback from the user.
This way, even if the user were accidentally blocked, the operation would be reversible.Pixelfed is enjoying great success, and we administrators are doing everything we can to contribute to this success, both through careful and ongoing moderation and by keeping registrations open. Unfortunately, this has led to an influx of spammers, and one way to address this is to mass-delete all suspicious users based on their username, language, and other external factors.
The inability to restore accidentally deleted users, however, limits this solution and forces us to spend a considerable amount of time manually checking each suspicious account. -

It's not for when users delete themselves..

@birdwing no, this option is intended exclusively for profiles deleted by moderators and not for profiles who have decided to delete their account.
