You can "soft delete" which is effectively the same as editing your message to "(deleted)" but the original message is retained in the edit history. This seems like somewhat of a liability for accidental pasting / sending messages to the wrong recipients.

bjorn3 (Feb 16 2023 at 21:04):Actually, it looks like this zulip instance is indeed configured to not allow deletion.
bjorn3 (Feb 16 2023 at 21:04):The rust-lang instance does allow deletion.
