This is potentially a very silly question but it also occurs to me that this may be far more complicated than first glance. It could even vary by instance. Are reports sent only to the moderators of the given community or admins as well? Maybe even the admins of the troublemaker’s instance?
From what I have read, reports go to both the community moderators and the admins. Also it goes to the admins of the instance the user that makes the report is from. For example, if a user from lemmy.world reports a comment, lemmy.world admins can “remove” it, but it is only removed for users from lemmy.world.
If removed by a moderator or admin from the community/instance the report is about, it is removed for everyone.
Do I understand this correctly?
Example:
- user@lemmy.world makes a comment in lemmy.blahaj.zone/c/main
- Users report it
- Mods of lemmy.blahaj.zone/c/main are notified
- If they remove it, it is removed everywhere
- Admins of lemmy.blahaj.zone are notified
- If they remove it, it is removed everywhere
- Admins of lemmy.world are notified
- If they remove it, it is removed in lemmy.world
- Mods of lemmy.blahaj.zone/c/main are notified
I believe that for example
User@lemmy.world makes a post in !196@blahaj.zone
User@lemmy.world reports that post
Mods of !196@blahaj.zone get a report
- if they remove it, it is removed for everyone
Admins of @blahaj.zone get a report
- if they remove it, it is removed for everyone
Admins of @lemmy.world get a report
- if they remove it, it is removed for all @lemmy.world user’s
It is the final point I am not 100% on, but that is how I’ve seen it described.
what if a user@some_ware.else makes the report?
