You can't assume that when you mark a #post for #deletion that it will be #deleted across the #fediverse. Whether a post gets deleted on a remote #server is entirely up to that server.
I guarantee you there are organizations and individuals here on the Fediverse right now that are running their own #ActivityPub servers and are #archiving and #cataloging every post, and they are #ignoring any #Delete #requests.
Because when you mark a post for deletion, that's all you're doing. You're requesting the remote server to delete the post from its #database.
And nobody is required to do that.
(Though the vast majority of ActivityPub servers do.)
