How do I delete a post that arrived from Mastodon? (lemmy.world)

I've got a post in my community that was posted by mistake. This one:

https://lemmy.world/post/4989402

It was actually me that posted it from my Mastodon account.

I can't see a way to delete or hide it from the community.

The kebab menu only has the following items:

Create report
Block user
Lock
Community pin

I've tried reporting the post and it appears on the report page, but I don't seem to be able to do anything with it other than clicking "resolve report".

Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: [email protected]
