      I don’t think lemmy provides tools for that (good), so normal moderators, can’t do this. With direct access to the server, maybe. So make sure your server admin isn’t spez.

      The person running an instance has access to the database of that instance and can do whatever they want with the data in that database.

        Only 1 server is sending the changes to the other servers? So if the instance is the source, the same thing would happen? Or will most servers have the data already by then, and not receive updates?

          If you view the data from Beehaw’s interface, you see the data of Beehaw’s database. If you view the data from Lemmy.world’s interface you see the data of Lemmy.world’s database. There’s no guarantee of consistency between the databases of different instances.
