Magazines can be deleted. There is a Delete Magazine button in the Magazine Panel of any magazine you own (on the General tab, first one).
However at this time it does not appear to be an automatic thing (I believe Ernest has to clear then manually). I've deleted around a dozen so far (which were taken care of within 24h) and have had over a dozen more as well waiting for deletion (which have been sitting there for a month+ as Ernest has been busy as of late, and then the holidays and such).
This is only from what I have seen and I have no knowledge of how federation works:
No. Ex: there have been many spam posts on food@kbin.social that I made a post about. I found out from that post that they were removed from the kbin mod, but I could still see them here on Midwest.social.
See this post for more info. There is also a link in there about this known issue.
It depends on what the remote server does with the federated delete command. You should generally assume that anything you post to the fediverse is permanent.
Threadiverse is still in its nascent stages of development, and it is even earlier stages for kbin. Anyone who have been around in the internet long enough knows that these issues are common at this stage. People who are complaining are failing to realise that this is still just a passion project of a single individual who is really not making any real profits in return, and is not a multi-billion enterprise with server farms of its own across the world. Even Reddit and Twitter had lots of such hiccups when they started out.
Thanks for all the work you are doing, Ernest! Always happy to be here!
As an aside, I downloaded one of the Lemmy apps to get my fix while things were having issues here. And while it wasn't bad, I'm definitely glad to be back. Huge appreciation for the function and form of Kbin and the tremendous amount of effort put in to keep it awesome.
Dude, you’re a trooper. Nobody said you had to do anything for anybody, but here you are making magic happen so people can continue to lurk and laugh at stupid memes.
Thank you. Seriously, thank you. Words won’t ever be enough to reflect our appreciation for your time.
