relevant magazine is /m/RedditMigration here on kbin.social. You can see it's the one and only report in the modlog yet the user who removed the comment is not listed in the moderators list, is not even a kbin.social user, and did not remove a lemmy.ml comment. Yet, it was removed for me as a kbin.social user.

How is this moderation working exactly? It's understandable that lemmy.ml mods can remove things for lemmy users, and mods on a magazine can remove things on the magazine. But it seems this is an unrelated user, removing a post of a user from an unrelated instance from a unrelated magazine.

How is this possible? what's going on here?

Edit: I checked on lemmy.world's copy and the comment is still visible, meaning the removal did not federate to lemmy.world.

I checked out the modlog and the mod in question is actually an admin at lemmy.ml. still shouldn't be able to reach in and delete things here though. https://lemmy.ml/u/cypherpunks

yeah they'd have to be an admin of partizle.com yeah? or be a moderator of the kbin magazine? that's why it's odd. perhaps the lemmy.ml admins can moderate every lemmy instance?

Bad news for the "who cares how evil the devs are, they can't affect anyone else" crowd.

not sure if that's actually the case, but if it is... yikes.
