@otter ouch, so that's even worse than I realized. I'm still getting some spam from the small abandoned M instances but only when it mentions the L name and it looks like even when it gets deleted from L, it still stays on the M side. I have spam posts in my timeline many hours old. This is bad because it looks like the only way to avoid them is to unfollow the community or block all spammers individually by myself.
Oh TRUE, I didn't consider the spam posts. I've been removing what I can but I think that only helps the users on lemmy.ca, otherwise it's up to the admins of the instance where the Lemmy community is?
Or do removals not federate onto Mastodon at all?
@otter I've seen other instance admins discussing that certain way of removal federates, but other doesn't. I don't know the specifics. Deleting from lemmy db directly doesn't federate, it clears it on that particular instance, but it makes it worse for others. https://slrpnk.net/comment/6287249
Good to know ok, I'll keep that in mind when dealing with spam
