Perhaps deleting messages on Lemmy doesn't work how you think?
Yeah. Now I'm wondering how it does. I had assume deletion on my end would delete for all. Is that determined by server if it does or something I suppose?
If you delete a comment, it may not be deleted for those visiting the instance you delete your comment on. As an example, you're on Blahaj, visiting .ml, so it's deleted on both of our ends. But, for someone visiting .ml from .ee, it won't necessarily federate the deletion, as it shows the version of .ml from .ee's perspective.
