Just reported some spam on !memes@lemmy.ml and noticed that I got it myself, as the sole admin of my private instance.
Would the mods of !memes@lemmy.ml and maybe even the admins on lemmy.ml have gotten the report as well or should I just ignore the report button and do what is necessary for my own instance?
Wait, right, I only considered admins of the instance where the community is.
A random admin can only affect their own instance.
Unless the user is also from the same instance as the random admin. In that case the admin can delete the user’s stuff from everywhere.
Ok now I think it makes sense, but I’m also a tad less sure :p
Ed: but technically there’s also an option for an instance to ignore deletion requests or do something else with them, or for federation to not work properly.
