If it is somehow possible, people should be able to delete their own top posts under certain circumstances.

I believe that forum threads are not owned by their topic starters. It is a shared collaborative work and it is not just a decision of the topic starter to delete them.
If the topic contains sensitive or personal information, then you can reach out to the moderators to help deal with it. But if you just not interested in the conversation anymore or resolved and issue in some other way - mark the thread resolved or edit the top post and add a note at the end like āUpdate: the issue is no longer relevantā

Yeah, I have the same feeling. Thereās also an aspect of: if you have a question, someone else probably does too. Even it turns out the answer was āobviousā and you feel silly for askingā¦ that suggests it actually isnāt so obvious after all, and leaving it shows that itās okay to ask such things without embarrassment.
