How does reporting work on Lemmy? If I report someone on another instance, do the mods from the community I report from get that report?
Asking because I get reports I make, it would seem rather silly to me if I can't report misconduct because I'm on my own instance.
Edit: so the answer is yes, another user kindly helped me verify by reporting my test post in the community on my instance. It looks like it sends the report to the relevant people just also sends it to my local admin account for whatever reason lol.
You know, it's surprisingly vague even in the official documentation.
Let's test it out. Create a post on your instance, and then make a comment on that post, and I'll go report them both as "testing" and we'll see if you get notified.
I got them, so looks like it does work as expected, my instance admin must just also get my reports. Kinda weird but if they go to the right place as well I'm not too concerned.
Edit: strikethrough is working on my end in the connect app.
Struggling with doing it without logging in so I'm commenting with what I think the link needs to be to work for me so I can click on it. !cloudaf@lemmy.cloudaf.site

You just described literally all of Lemmy's documentation.
I had to read the source code for Lemmy to find out what API endpoint to hit, how it worked, and what to expect on return for a script that I was writing. You need to do that for some documented API endpoints as well. Calling it "vague" is a nice way to put it.
I have no idea what reporting does. Not even if it is sent.
I tried reporting some nudity content in a community, but it was broken en 2 apps, and took a very long time from the browser...
Ohhhh... Well that might be an issue with your specific instance being unresponsive. The reports I just did, however, worked pretty much how you would expect, so it's not likely to be a lemmy-ui or backend bug.
