So all our storage is extended a year from when it was purchased? I know so many folx that have bought a ton. I’m on my third myself Any way to delete chosen ones from FARCASTER completely? For posterity reasons I want my first post to stay and since it is the oldest it will get overwritten. I learned as well that if you delete a cast in WARPCAST it still exists on other clients which was a shocker.

deleting a cast on warpcast will remove it from hubs and the farcaster network.

How long does that take? A few folks were trying to build Marie Kondo type cast clean up tools so we didn’t have to buy storage but some devs came back and said deleted casts still counted against our storage limits.

deleted casts will take up space until they are expired. our decentralized architecture has many benefits (e.g. no fees per action, unlike blockchains). this is the tradeoff we made to get those benefits.

So if you renew your storage “in a year” they will still be there correct? Or does everything fall off on that anniversary date?
