You can find various of my OPs and comments, but I deleted them days ago on the feddit.nl instance. These OPs aren't visible on the feddit.nl instance, but they're visible on lemmy.world.

Why? The same goes for lemmy.ml, but it concerns a different number of OPs and comments.

Deletions are somewhere between flaky and plain busted right now: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3588

So, now instances are hosting posts and comments that a user deleted on another instance. But that user has no way to 're-delete' the OP and comment.

Now what?

I guess the instances might cross check the existence of OPs and comments on other instances, but the longer this problem exists, the larger the problem.

It's a bug. It needs a fix.

Indeed some developers are looking into it. Will hopefully be solved soon. It is a Lemmy-wide issue.

Best chance follow the thread on GitHub, as below is commented.

In ieder geval bedankt voor het melden. :)
