TIL that your @netlify preview and branch deploys stick around forever, the only way to get rid of them is to delete the entire site. Better hope you never commit anything confidential/sensitive or any JS that calls out to external services... 🤦‍♂️

Have you written a response to this? Let me know the URL:

  Well that's an exciting discovery! Good thing we aren't doing anything important with things like write-only cryptographic data structures at a large scale, right?

  I didn't know this either. We have been using Netlify for a project. I should look into it next week, to see if this would be a problem for us.

  Thank you! This is much needed. We ended up deleting the whole site and starting over and luckily it went extremely smoothly.

  hey! we're aware of this & it's definitely something we're fixing. it looks like it's rolling out Q1-ish in the meantime, we can delete anything you need deleted if you open a topic in the forums answers.netlify.com (I know that's not ideal, but we'll get you taken care of)

  Don't know, I've never used it. I'm just getting bit by this @netlify issue on a project right now and it's incredibly frustrating.

  @aaronpk That is certainly a weird way to treat something called a "preview"!
