I'm a little confused as to how the "report" function works. I'm an instance admin, but if I report a post on another instance, that report shows up in MY report queue. If I mark that report as "resolved" to get rid of the notification count, does it resolve it on the home instance?

I have 0 experience with the admin side of Lemmy, so I don't know what actions an Admin can take over a user from another instance. If I had to guess:

  • In the post I linked before there is a comment talking about a "purge feature", but I don't know how that works.
  • Community Mods may be able (?) to ban the user in that specific community
  • Instance Admins may be able (?) to ban / block the replication of that user content in their instance

But again, not an expert, so I don't really know what is the intended way to handle this.
