I'm a little confused as to how the "report" function works. I'm an instance admin, but if I report a post on another instance, that report shows up in MY report queue. If I mark that report as "resolved" to get rid of the notification count, does it resolve it on the home instance?

You can have a look at https://join-lemmy.org/docs/users/04-moderation.html to see a table with the different actions and the role required, as well as some explanation of how it works.

Personally, I received reports as a non-admin mod for a community from users from other instances, so that should be possible

What I don't see is how it works accross instances. If we were talking about a single instance, then everything is very easy.

But, I have some questions:
... which I don't expect you to answer :)

  • An admin from instance X purges a user from that instance, does the purge propagate to all other instances? Or maybe each instance's admins need to purge that user.
  • What happens if an admin from instance X purges a user from instance Y?
