I accidentally posted this: https://lemmy.zip/post/56692643 because I made a mistake while checking to see if anyone posted it already so I immediately hit delete after I saw it was "crossposted".

However I still saw the post on Zip and other instances like World and ML so I then hit hide post and it seemed to fix the problem on Zip but not yet other instances.

Is the issue that I just need to be patient for it to federate or am I misunderstanding these features? My assumption would be deleting the post would make it go away for everyone but perhaps people or maybe just moderators and myself could still see the post by clicking on my profile which is fine with me, I just wanted to delete it since the same article was just posted a day ago.
