Hi, thank you for your reply.
Sorry for a silly question, but do you know how I accept this request, and/or perform the deletion?
It's not a silly question. I can answer it for you. :)
On AUR, regular users, even if they maintain packages, do not have the privileges on the server to delete packages. You would have to be an elevated status user for that (formerly titled 'Trusted User', or 'Developer', but now there are other special titles, such as 'Package Maintainer').
But you can submit your own deletion request, mentioning you are the package owner and that this is no longer needed.
Trusted Users see maintainers's own request as a separate category, so they can and do treat these with priority.
(Outsiders' requests can queue up for a pretty long time, even for months, when there's thousands of them pending.)
Also keep ownership of the package until a TU acts upon your request. (If you disown it before that, your request will not be visible in the maintainer's requests category.)
Keep up the good work. Cheers. :)

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for accountable2you-bin [2]:
As per maintainer's last comment, this package from 2020 is now unneeded.
By brief checking, I was able to find a Snap store release - people can easily install the latest version from there.
