I have had a couple of occurences now where I post something then immediately delete it for one reason or another, yet the post keeps gaining votes and attention. When I check the post on lemmy.ca it returns a 404 but I can still view the post on the instance that it was posted to. Is this because I’m using the Photon front end or is this just a Lemmy thing? This seems like a rather large oversight…

They federate, it just takes a while
For some reason it takes longer for a deletion to delete than it takes for a post to show up. I don’t know why this is, but there shouldn’t be a reason for a post that shows up across instances within minutes to also not be deleted for up to several days.
