What happens on Facebook might just stay on Facebook – literally.

In a series of posts on Reddit and Twitter, Facebook users have complained that they are unable to erase their posts from the desktop version of the website. On the other hand, many others are still having the delete post option in their profiles. So, what’s happening here?

It could be possible that Facebook is testing an upcoming change; it could be a bug as well. Contrary to the assumption that Facebook is completely removing the delete posts option, it was found hidden in the Activity Log section of the website.
