Cos if so why can I see a whole bunch of mod actions on the lemmy.ml mod-log but not here? If it doesn’t how/why would any other instance respect a moderation action by another instance let alone know about it?

    It is, but the only fully federated things are instance oriented moderations. No one can federate out changes on to communities on other instances. Those actions would only show for their local users.

    It federates…ish.

    Some instances federate actions better than others, and even then it can be random which get properly federated- a lot of time site/community bans don’t get federated to the modlog right but content removals almost always do. I have a feeling this is largely intentional.

    The most reliable method is always to check the home instance of the community/user directly.
