I’m cross-posting this to [email protected] in case Issue #2 below is symptomatic of a sync issue that the admins need to know about.

cross-posted from: https://sh.itjust.works/post/5452780

My main account is on sh.itjust.works, but I am a mod for some communities on lemmy.world.

Issue #1: A few weeks ago I learned that user reports do not federate between instances (Github issue #3781). Therefore I cannot see reports from the .world communities.

Issue #2: As a workaround for #1, I created an account on lemmy.world. From my sh.itjust.works account I made my lemmy.world account a mod in my communities. Unfortunately, it is not taking effect. See the attached image for one example. My lemmy.world account does not know that it is now a moderator account.

Is issue #2 simply a sync issue between the two instances? Or is something else happening?

Is issue #1 expected to be resolved in the near future?

    There are some known issues with federation at the moment. It’s a problem with Lemmy itself.

    Can you please provide the issue on Lemmy’s GitHub?

      I will look through Lemmy’s GitHub and see if it’s worth opening a unique issue for my problem. I may pile on to an existing issue. For example, I noticed that #3862 covers other sync issues that may be related to my problem.
