I'm getting rid of accounts I no longer need in my password manager. There is _so_ much asshole design in account deletion (thread).
I guess having to open a support ticket is kinda standard these days (which is sad enough). But having to download an app only to delete the account?
Best thing I encountered yet: Needed to open a support ticket, after 4 emails back and forth I was told to go to their GDPR form and submit that. But conveniently submitting that form always failed. 🙄
It's so exhausting. Please please please make it easy to delete an account.

Mixpanel has buttons for deletion (props), but I need to delete the project (that they created for me) first, which takes two days. So I have to remember to delete my account in two days. Why!?
Oh I forgot: There are service where you are required to use their web chat to cancel. The person on the other side never took less than 5mins to answer, so I had to wait 30min and check the chat every now and then.
