There is no legal precedent, but most likely you would only have to prove deletion on your own server.

I think asking other instances to remove too is reasonable also

We are talking legal obligations.

If you remove content you posted somewhere in the fediverse, your server will send "delete" activities to other servers anyways. But your server does not know whether those other servers actually do delete it.
