That's what I've heard. It probably respects it if you were a sh.itjust.works instance member, but not if you're not? That's from people talking about it last time this came up.

I don't know what to tell you, the mod tools for Lemmy are pretty minor. All I can do as speak as moderator and then it goes to the top for my instance and I think fellow instance members.

Honestly I think it's displayed a little too prominently. Might need to go through my user settings and see if I can make it tone down the highlight a bit
