Despite removing comments hours previously, I’m getting complaints from sync users that they’re still seeing the spam bots that have plagued the lemmy today.

This leads me to believe that sync for lemmy fails to handle federated comment removals (note: some instances, those running kbin or mbin don’t handle them at all)

Can this be added to ensure that when a mod removes a comment, the comment isn’t seen by sync users?

Thanks

    Sync knows the comments are deleted - there’s a trash bin icon there

    I saw a comment mentioning that you’ll see certain types of deleted comments if you’re a moderator of any community, probably that is the case here but only lj would know…

      Complaints I’m seeing aren’t from a mod, so it’s not that.

      Could be something like caching the comment after I’ve done the removal.
