when a user isnt found, that means the file should be gone too, right? cus then the user's deleted, meaning all their files should be deleted too, but then the problem is what if its just a db lookup error and then a random file just yeets itself

so i kinda have 2 options:

  1. implement user deletion, just hide files that the server fails to find a user for
  2. delete a file if the uploader isnt found, trusting the database lookup never fails

and im pretty sure im going with 1, so im gonna do that
