I'm a mod on !gothindustrial@lemmy.world, and recently I've been attempting to update that community's info. However, it looks like the changes I make aren't federating? So for example, if I update the community info with my piefed.blahaj.zone account, the updated info displays when viewed from piefed.blahaj.zone, but visiting that community on lemmy.world doesn't show the updated info.

Am I doing something wrong? is this a known issue?

You're moderating across instances, and from piefed to lemmy. Moderation on the threadiverse is only completely reliable when done with an account on the same instance that hosts the community. Other mods can help, but they won't see all reports, you can't rely on their removals federating properly, and you get moments like this.

I'd suggest making yourself a lemmy.world account just for moderation, add it as a mod with your blahaj account, and then do the updates from the lemmy.world account.
