    The problem is that the lemmy.ml admins decided to bulk delete these posts from their database directly, which sadly doesn’t federate out to other instances, and thus the only way to solve this is for other instances to also delete them directly in their database.

      Bulk mod actions are unfortunately a missing feature in lemmy at the moment. Consider donating to the lemmy devs and/or let them know that bulk actions and other modding tools are important features that users want.

        There are solutions already, even writing a simple for loop that will remove+federate.

          What solutions? I’m not aware of any way to bulk remove and federate those removals. Even if an admin could bulk remove via direct database access, I’m not aware of any way to federate those removals.

          Any proper solution must be available in the user interface and must be usable by moderators also, not just admins.

            Well, you need to access the api. There are also various automods one can deploy.
