I’ve just discovered that lemmy.world (and potentially other) users I’ve banned from my magazine are still able to comment, comments I can’t see on kbin but that do show up on lemmy.world.
(E: I already knew removed comments still show up on other instances, but assumed that sorts itself out in time, but now I’m not so sure)

This makes modding futile.

I want to make sure my space is safe and not hostile to those of us who already deal with bullshit everywhere else, and I can’t do that when this is the case.

How do we fix this?

    Thanks for explaining, but wow, that’s really unfortunate and seems like something that needs addressing, especially since they’re the biggest instance.
    I thought the whole point was to have the freedom to associate and disassociate with the content of our choosing?

    Is there a way to know if/when this is fixed? Because I honestly don’t feel comfortable posting the content I do to my target audience if I can’t properly keep the trash out.

      What you’re asking for is control over other intance’s users. That’s never gonna happen.

        This is a software bug. Why would other normal instances not want to know about and enforce community ban lists? That just results in a poor experience for their own users.

          OK, I misunderstood your case a bit. You’re talking about community ban federation. Yea, that does make sense.
