I hear you -- it can be eye-opening to read something or come across a post about a person or from a person who is no longer with us. I see this on Facebook, for instance, when it shows me a photo of a loved one who is now deceased.
We have no way of deleting all of a person's posts or threads, deceased or not. It's a very manual process right now.
We also have very little in way of identifying information on an individual unless they choose to share such with us. So verification of a person's death would be extremely difficult for us. We couldn't just take someone's word for it, we would need to verify the death ourselves to be certain.
So it's problematic for a number of reasons. But it's something I'll think about ways we could help alert people to that fact in a way that would be possible for us and maybe help soften the blow...
Best,
DocJohn
