In the year 2023, I'm kind of flabbergasted that anyone would believe that something that takes place on the internet is considered ephemeral.
>I would much prefer comments here to automatically delete after some reasonable time period (a week?)
you're more than welcome to build that and release it to see how much traction it would get. but it's also weird to think that the responses to questions that are valid to post now would not still be relevant in the future for people to come back to (or find for the first time via search). if your response is truly not worthy for future reading, i would have to ask if it is really worth now. if you're that concerned about having that response associated to you, then i'd again say maybe it is best not being made at all.
