But after that, is it possible to completely delete my account?

The idea would be to keep it but make it look like [Delete Account](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/delete-account/368684)

If possible, we'd keep it anonymized (since it even has a marked answer). Otherwise we'd have to delete the thread but we can also do it if that's important for you.
