Settings - Cannot delete an account with 1 shared channel #4532
Observed while testing #4518 - it's not possible to delete an account with one shared channel.
See the following video:
2024-04-23_12-01-25.mp4
Expected behavior
The text under 'Delete account' states that: You must delete these channels manually or invite others to edit them before you can delete your account. Since I have invited others then it should be possible to delete the account while it's not.
Steps to reproduce the issue
Create a brand new account
Create a channel and share it with someone so that they can edit it.
Go to Settings > Account and attempt to delete the account.
Vivek ran into this when working on user deletion. I believe we realized this isn't as simple as the copy makes it seem. The files uploaded by the user would have to be reassigned to another user. If that user has already uploaded content, that could push the user past the storage limit, opening many edges in how we handle this. The simplest near-term fix is to update the copy so that it aligns with the current behavior until we implement channel ownership features.
