Read through the whole thing, you "lose access" to your stuff but it never mentions them deleting the content. Seems like the same shitty move Reddit did a while ago, "your" content in there is now theirs. Deleting your account just makes u unable to use/modify it.

@Willdrick @BrianTheeBiscuiteer there's a cool video on the subject at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g5FbRfwMEuo

Basically you have to use a tool to delete your messages and then send a GDPR request to discord before deleting your account, otherwise your messages will stay and will appear as sent from "Deleted user" with no way to delete them.
