Is it possible to hide or remove the 'delete' option once someone has submitted a list item? I've Googled but haven't found the answer.

You can create a Permission Level that does not allow deletes.
Click Site Settings->Site Permissions->Permission Levels
Click Add a Permission Level and give it a name like “Add - Edit - View Only”.
Check “Add Items”, “Edit Items”, “View Items”, “Open Items”, “View Versions”, “View Application Pages”, and “Create Alerts” under List Permissions.
Check “View Pages” and “Open” under Site Permissions.
Check “Manage Personal Views” under Personal Permissions (if you want).
Save.
Then edit the Permissions on the list and assign this Permission Level to your users and the Delete buttons will not appear.

Thanks, but I was looking for how to hide or disable it when you right click on the ellipsis.– AnnMar 4, 2018 at 14:09
