MODERATORS
 

Hello everyone!

As some of you probably seen, both @[email protected] and I decided to step up as moderators since @[email protected] (the original owner) hasn't been active for 7 months now. While this isn't a problem from a spam or content perspective at the moment, it's definitely something that can affect the place if the activity ball gets rolling or we end up on the radar of a troll, bot, or spammer.

We already started thinking about some changes to step away from the "in case Reddit falls" feel of the early days and turn it into its own thing but we could really use your help.

We're trying to figure out the best way to make this community more active and welcoming for potential newcomers. Since this place is by all of us, for all of us, we'd love to get some feedback on what you'd like to see done with it.

Do you have an idea for a rule? A type of content you'd like to see more of? Maybe you know of some useful links, tips and resources that should be easily accessible here?

Feel free to post anything that comes to mind as each piece of feedback will help shape the direction of our efforts and, truth be told, make our jobs way easier.

Thank you for your time and happy reading!

Just noticed both you and @[email protected] are modding from accounts that are not ani.social accounts. I have tried to moderate communities on one instance with an account in a different instance and I did not have access to all the mod tools. Pretty frustrating. Lemmy might have updated to accommodate cross-instance moderation, but as far as I know it's hard. Do you both have sidebar manipulation access, can you change the icon and banner, can you ban users and delete any post made in the instance? If you do not have all the mod powers you might want to get an ani.social account or elevate an ani.social user to mod.

Yeah, I heard there were problems but I seem to have all the mod controls (I actually checked right after getting them).

Just tested deleting and restoring your comment to confirm in practice - it worked fine. I appreciate the reminder!

if you want to test comment deletion powers, here's a comment you can delete that wasn't made by either mod
