You’re totally right, the content of your posts is not considered personal data (because it isn’t)
It’s more about profiling data that can be connected back to your actual person
Technically, they could retain posts from users if they are irreversibly anonymized. However, ensuring with 100% certainty that none of your posts ever contained any personal data that could lead to the identification of you as an individual is challenging. The safest option is therefore to also delete your posts.
Doesn’t that just mean the data would have to be anonymized ?
