Saw a post about a user saying he enjoys reading the modlogs for some reason. So I went ahead and checked it out which got me thinking…
Have we deleted/censored anything in this instance yet? Have we banned anyone yet?
Anyone willing to take one for the team/instance?
(The last line was a joke. Don’t ban me plis.)
Yeah, Brandon (sorry, idk how to tag on the app lol) mentioned this. I was honestly surprised since I think it burdens instance admins with more responsibilities than they should have (that’s what mods are for, right?). Also, as he mentioned, it’s also a big risk when an admin goes rogue (or gets hacked like in lemmy.world). Definitely agree with his POV. I honestly thought you were limited to the specific instance you’re in. It does have a few pros, but I’m not sure that outweighs the cons?
Definitely not the minority. I’m honestly happy even the owner has the same POV as us. I wouldn’t want to force my opinions on anyone, so us being on the same page is a relief.
Do go on if you want. Lol. I’m not gonna stop you. :P
Yea, the system leaves a lot to be desired and makes me question if whoever designed it has any experience in moderating things. Hopefully with time it gets improved like everything else :)
You would think thats the case… I hope it doesn’t require something to go south for this to be changed.
@CheshireSnake@iusearchlinux.fyi should work. I think, it seems to be a bit buggy. Edit: it doesn’t work?
I don’t own it, I am just an admin, but I did ask the actual owner about it last week and he said we can block it.
I am busy nuking the little of what is still left of my Reddit accounts so you are safe till another day :D
Yes it did. Thanks! Sorry I replied late. I was playing. Lol. I usually don’t go on lemmy/reddit when I’m on pc. Does tagging someone auto-populate for you? I’m using liftoff and it doesn’t, unfortunately. I need to type everything including the domain.
Lmao. Carry on then. That’s important work.
Also, I do know the owner of the instance (not personally, just what his username is). My choice of words sometimes leave a lot to be desired. Sorry if it confuses you.
Oh no worries at all, I am the queen of late replies. From what I read the autopopulation only works on web so far (Connect doesn’t autopopulate for me either), but even then it is a bit iffy when it actually decides to work and who it actually finds. Would also be nice if you didn’t have to specify domain if you are on the same instance :/
Important and sad work since its nuking 12 years worth of stuff on 3 accounts. But has to be done as I have no intention of going back at this point (I am just keeping 1 account around because it actually has some stuff that sadly needs to stay up).
Ahhh ok, just making sure. I don’t wanna claim any ownership where there is none.
Back kinda on topic tho, in the post you mentioned (I assume its the same one I seen) someone mentioned that there should be a “best of mod reports” community on Lemmy too. There should be a “best of join instance applications” too. I don’t think those are public anywhere, but some of the ones we get make me chuckle.

It would be fun to have a community for that if it won’t get you guys in trouble lol! There are some who are sensitive about privacy.
Would never post anything that can even remotely be related to someones privacy and obviously without usernames. I am more concerned people would make unnecessary new accounts for us to post.
@CheshireSnake@iusearchlinux.fyi did this ping you? I replied to myself so you shouldn’t get a notification otherwise.
Yup. This definitely works. It’s just weird on Liftoff since it’s on a different tab. I didn’t see it immediately.
Alright, good to know it actually sends a notification, thanks!
