How long will an account's "recently deleted questions" be kept? Will that be the same for all SE sites, or vary? I wish they are kept forever.

SE just soft-delete (the post is there, just that isn't visible) all the posts, so they are kept in the databases forever. Now, in your "recently deleted questions/answers" that appears in your user profile, that will only be kept for 60 days.

  • Thanks. Why 60 days? not 0 day or forever?
