I checked and there shouldn't be any images stored on the server when running lemmy 1.18.4. The post was made in high emotional distress and shouldn't be taken at a face value. If the posts are bothering you I advise purging the posts in question. (I have already done that)
How did you check this? From my understanding, images from external servers are copied (and transcoded) over locally. At least in my server (running 0.18.4), they do.
If the source deletes the post. Won’t that remove it from all the instances ?
I'm not subscribed to that community, but I guess I'm glad Pictrs doesn't work for me, since I am using the Yunohost version of Lemmy. The creators of the Yunohost package couldn't get it to work. I haven't really missed it honestly.

I am using the Lemmy easy deploy would this command works?
You'll need to find where the actual container files are being stored. I'm unfortunately not familiar with Lemmy Easy Deploy, but you should have a folder that has some files/folders like docker-compose.yml, volumes, lemmy.hjson.
The important one is the volumes/pictrs/files folder, take the full path of that folder and replace it with the /srv/lemmy/example.com... path from the original post, and then that command should work.
There was a weird JSON error I was getting in the last few minutes. I'm not sure if this is at all related.
As far as I know, images should not be federating to federated instances, right? Image proxying is supposed to be added to pictrs version 0.5.0 but it is still in alpha.
