@alphatownsman Has this worked? I want to shut down a Takahe instance and I feel that would be a safe way to communicate to other instances that the identity is gone, rather than just deleting the instance. |

it runs well for my instance for last few months, I had more aggressive changes locally that broadcast delete to all peers. I need to look at it again to see what I was thinking to be added before moving this out of Draft, but you can certainly take and use it. |

There was a problem hiding this comment.
Can you not inline this formula? It's not complicated, but it is subtle and it took me a moment to figure out what it was doing and why.

instead of physically deleting a deleted identity, a more common and better practice is to return 410 Gone with type = Tombstone
