I deleted them at about the same time, both on different instances. One is empty, from perspective of my new instance, but the other one shows all the posts. What am I supposed to do? I share some of my personal stuff online as means of venting so I can possibly reflect through unbiased responses from strangers and I'm comfortable with it, as long as I have control over my "content", so to speak. I'm not sure what to do now.

I genuinely don't mind it existing somewhere not available easily. But I mind it being stored out in the open when I took the steps to have it removed. To censor oneself is an awful, very mentally unhealthy advice. Had I not used the Internet the ways I do, I'd probably be long gone. Internet is a great space for free alternative therapy (and normal therapy is very expensive and nowhere as efficient). I knew this comment would come, but I chose to let it happen so I could respond. If you wish to not be yourself, feel free to! I choose to embrace myself for my own sake.
