The alternatives were mentioned in the episode, but they aren’t on this website. This was from the last section, which was something along the lines of “if you absolutely need to use their products, you can still have some impact. Here is a memorable website you can link people to”
The permadelete_for_creator function (called by the purge_user_account function, which is called by the delete_user_account handler when delete content is true) updates every comment of the user to contain the predefined text “Permanently Deleted”.
Wait, can you serioisly not delete comments with Thunder or am I blind,

Android Thunder. Three dots below message you wrote. Delete at bottom.
Note that short of deleting your account, messages aren’t deleted with Lemmy. They’re marked hidden in the html. You can see them with view source.

Thunder has a “Delete Account” option in the account settings.
That’s kinda misleading if it says delete but doesn’t really do so.
