I found a way to retrieve the text of comments deleted by user or mod. I don't think it is an issue of federated instances not respecting the deletion.

Is it a bug?

Or is "deleting" always really just "hiding"?

deleted by user stuff should really not be returned but its possible (ugh) that they're just doing that on the frontend.

They definitely are, I can read deleted comments on boost.
