How do I delete a post that arrived from Mastodon? (lemmy.world)

I've got a post in my community that was posted by mistake. This one:

https://lemmy.world/post/4989402

It was actually me that posted it from my Mastodon account.

I can't see a way to delete or hide it from the community.

The kebab menu only has the following items:

  • Create report
  • Block user
  • Lock
  • Community pin

I've tried reporting the post and it appears on the report page, but I don't seem to be able to do anything with it other than clicking "resolve report".

Not sure. Depends a lot on context. menu changes depending on how you got there. From the report mailbox links often land me on the poster's instance not logged in. Confusing for sure. Try clicking on the group page link. clicking on the post title works, iirc

might be different since poster is also a mod. my example was from a non-member mastodon account. same name different instance
