Privacy Issue! Only option to delete old chats = Delete Account!

Hello, I recently discovered that unlike any chat platform in the WORLD, discord does not allow users to delete conversations. This is a big privacy-security issue. If someone managed to get hold of one of my devices, or to get into one of my accounts, then they could read every conversation that I have had on discord. If I close the conversation, they only need to reopen it.

There is a thing called The Data Protection Act. which says that if any company is holding any information about a person, which the person would like to have deleted, then the company must comply with the request for deletion.

I should not be forced to make a second account, or find a trustworthy friend to transfer my server ownerships to, and delete the whole account, in order to clear old PRIVATE chats away.

I think it is disgraceful that you have setup the app in this way, and I recommend that you prioritise above all other developments, the immediate implementation of a delete conversation function which would allow users to permanently delete old Private conversations. I also advise that you release the update within a week.

Thanks

    Actually deleting your account won't even delete your DMs, it'll just change the name to "deleted user", in which you can still be easily identified from the messages.

    So it's actually even worse than you say.
