If a user from a defederated instance comments on a community I moderate, how do I moderate the user or their comment? (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

If my account is on Blahaj and the community I moderate is on another instance like lemmy.world, and the user is from an instance we defederate from like hexbear, I won't see the hexbear user's comments (or even their user if I search for it) from my Blahaj instance, and so I don't see a way I can moderate their comments on the lemmy.world instance I moderate.

Does this seem right? Is there any workaround?

(I guess I could make an account on the same instance as the community I moderate just for moderating that instance?)

My answer to this is to moderate from an instance that doesn't defederate any other instance (other than illegally egregious ones) - SDF.

right, but wouldn't it be best to have an account on the instance the community you moderate is on? Presumably this is the best way to have exact parity - the the community won't support comments or users from instances it defederates from, right?

Of course! I was just telling you what I do. I didn't claim it was perfect 🙂

oh, sorry - didn't mean that as a critique, just was thinking out loud and wondering if there was a reason I wasn't seeing to moderate from a single open instance (like you) vs the approach of having a moderator account for the instance of the community you moderate 🤔
