Can I setup Immich to automatically delete remote files when I delete local files?

🚧Setup❓QuestionUsage📱Mobile🗄️Server
I personally find it very annoying that when I delete a photo in a local (iOS) folder being synced to Immich, the remote copy stays and i have to manually delete it from Immich. Can this be changed?

I only just realized I have photos on my Immich server that I didn’t expect to be there after i deleted them from my local iPhone folder.

There’s no way to sort by photos ONLY remote from what I can tell and it’s driving me crazy
