That depends entirely on the community where the post was made. If the community is on lemmy.ml, then the deletion federates to all other instances (including yours I think). Otherwise, if a lemmy.ml admin deletes a post in a remote community, that action isnt federated at all. At least thats how it should work, might be worth testing to confirm.

Its not so difficult to implement functionality that remote content can be fetched automatically on demand like you describe. It just takes a certain amount of work, and so far we are busy with other things. These things take time when there are only two developers funded with donations, and not some startup with millions in venture capital.

You should open an issue in that apps repository.

The difference is, the moderators moderation action will federate to other instances, but the instance admins will not.

Unless the admin and community are on the same instance, then admin actions will federate. Not so easy to explain...

It works just fine.

Yes there is definitely a lack in variety regarding instances. So people just need to go ahead and create new ones.

So you can give some Swedish company access to all your web traffic. Great idea if you hate privacy. At least Tor can get some money this way.

Tools written in Rust are generally both performant and correct (few runtime crashes or other programming bugs). There arent many other languages with this combination of advantages.

When have scammers ever cared if something is legal? And corporations like meta can pay a lot more lawyers than you.

Most Fediverse data is public so its very easy to scrape. Facebook wouldnt even have to implement any federation in their own platforms if thats their only goal.

This has been fixed already, otherwise you would see HTML in the title of this post as well.

I see your problem but I dont think this can be fixed with any rule change or Lemmy feature. It would be possible to let people access posts after they are removed by a mod, but that wont help if your account gets banned. Or if your account gets hacked and deleted. Or if the instance goes down permanently for some reason.

If you are worried about your content disappearing, you should keep backups. For example with an API client which regularly downloads everything to a local file. There is also a feature request for a functionality to export an archive with user data. Even better would be an external service like reveddit.com which reads content from the API and stores it.

I suggest you create a new post to discuss this problem, then more people can give their ideas and opinions.
