Kinda weird and sus that some Mastodon instances aren't respecting deletes....

@tom @ThaMunsta it should send delete requests to every instance that it was sent to. It should know that because my server has to actually send the post. Maybe I'm misunderstanding things but this seems like it should be an easy thing to do.

@RedTechEngineer @kevinrns @jasdemi 🤨if I ask a server to delete a post *I* made, it should honor that request.

Yes that seems polite.

@kevinrns @RedTechEngineer @jasdemi seems like how the software should work. Politeness shouldn't be an option.
Denying the request should not be possible.

You can just change the software, lol.
I mean thousands of videos are saved from Youtube a day, that are deleted...
Privscy and deleting is an illusion on the internet as a whole tbh

Also, I think that it's very hard to track which posts are sent where, especially on fedi...

@fbievan @kevinrns @RedTechEngineer @jasdemi surely my instance should know that since it's the one sending it out each time, but I guess that's too much info to hang onto.️
It is what it is. Just another nail in the coffin for my hopes of this place getting much bigger than it currently is.

not nesscerarily...
often the time you instance sends it to an instance which then sends it to another instance, which then fowards it to some random ass instance

@fbievan @kevinrns @RedTechEngineer @jasdemi all of the forwarding and boosting is directly done by my instance. That's why when a huge account boosts one of my posts, my instance crawls for about 30 seconds, sidekiq queue gets pretty hefty.

@fbievan @kevinrns @RedTechEngineer @jasdemi that's also why you cannot boost a post of mine and have it end up on an instance I've blocked on my end.

Your instance, since you deleted it, probably has no copy, and the copies you see elsewhere are stored elsewhere.
Continue to ask for politeness, but don't Barbara Streisand it.

@kevinrns @fbievan @RedTechEngineer @jasdemi I didn't care about this one specific example, thats why I brought it up.️
