You are responsible for data collected by your own instance. If a deletion request comes through, you are responsible for deleting it from your account, and forwarding the deletion request and responses to other instance you federate with. You are in the clear as long as you don't keep data you legally can't, and have sufficiently informed other instances of your obligations.

No, if you collected the data and shared it with others, simply informing the others is not enough. This is why the platform needs tools for admins to comply.

A proper method, that allows the users to nume their account could already be enough.
