@Bonfire@bonfire.cafe would it be possible to have federation deletion jobs that don't find the thing to delete not be considered a failed job? I seem to get an awful lot of them (enough to drop federation job success rates down to ~60% sometimes) which makes it hard to spot actual problems when they do happen. Especially because (it appears?) some servers keep on sending the deletion requests, meaning that it's showing errors for things that have already been successfully deleted.
