They are federated, but it’s not reliable. Lot of room for improvement. I have comments that where the deletion never federated so they’re basically on other servers forever.
Comment on Will Lemmy ever add federated delete?

Admittedly I hadn’t experimented to be sure, but I assumed edits and deletes would have been federated already. Are they really not?

I’ve made edits and deletes, and as far as I can tell, once the instances sync up, those edits/deletes are synced as well - I have noticed a delay, but it usually kicks in like overnight (for example) when I make a change to my account on lemm.ee for lemmy.world to see it, etc.

Comment and post edits and deletes are federated. OP probably means account deletion. Currently, if you delete your Lemmy account, it does not federate, so your old comments and posts stick around on other instances, I believe even with your old username attached.

Thanks for clearing that up. I was truly confused.
