It seems like Lemmy will delete all your data once you deleted your account. It sounds to me like Lemmy will remove all the post and comments as well.

However, I think some of the posts and comments might be helpful for others, all I want from deleting account is to remove my username, so that others cannot piece together my comments and posts.

Is there a “deactivate” option like reddit where it only remove your username from the post, but not the post?
