My main account is on sh.itjust.works, but I am a mod for some communities on lemmy.world.

Issue #1: A few weeks ago I learned that user reports do not federate between instances (Github issue #3781). Therefore I cannot see reports from the .world communities.

Issue #2: As a workaround for #1, I created an account on lemmy.world. From my sh.itjust.works account I made my lemmy.world account a mod in my communities. Unfortunately, it is not taking effect. See the attached image for one example. My lemmy.world account does not know that it is now a moderator account.

Is issue #2 simply a sync issue between the two instances? Or is something else happening?

Is issue #1 expected to be resolved in the near future?

    The initial sync failed. When this happens, it is attempted again at an increasing time interval, until it stops trying entirely. (After three days IIRC)

    To re-trigger a sync after that point, you’d need to be un-modded on the home instance of the community and re-modded.

      I’m running into a similar issue. I’m a mod for a community on another instance. I can’t unpin a post. It shows as unpinned on my instance, but not the instance that the community is hosted on. Is this the same issue/solution you described?

      Edit: I also tried to workaround this issue by adding a user I created on the community’s home instance and had the same problem. It is a moderator on my instance, but not the community’s instance.
