You could postpone the deletion (yet mark them as deleted accounts) and let the user know that their content will be removed forever in X days. Not sure how well this works with the GDPR thingy, though.

True, Kind of like a countdown to doomsday. But yeah, I'll definitely look into this as an alternative that would work for everyone if it's GDPR compliant. Thanks for the idea!
