Kinda weird and sus that some Mastodon instances aren't respecting deletes....
Had a post I deleted last week that just got replied to, from a mastodon instance.
And people wonder why casual users don't wanna be here...🤦♂️

I deleted the post that this is replying to.
You won't find it on my instance. Yet, there it is.
Not sure what it is, but it doesn't feel good.

@BeAware@social.beaware.live @tom I would like to think this is sorta a "if a tree falls in a forest" kinda thing or maybe just a relay not doing a good job. If you have a follower from that instance it absolutely should not happen...

@tom@tomkahe.com @ThaMunsta@nervesocket.com it should send delete requests to every instance that it was sent to. It should know that because my server has to actually send the post. Maybe I'm misunderstanding things but this seems like it should be an easy thing to do.

@BeAware@social.beaware.live yeah weird, it's gotta be a bug because I doubt acm.org is intentionally archiving posts lol
I would hope that mastodon notifies the server if they replied to a deleted post though, in case a delete message falls through

@tom 🤷♂️I received the reply like nothing was wrong. Except the reply doesn't look like a reply on my end.

Happens to me all the time on Lemmy...I delete a post and still get replies.
