Hey all I've recently took over [email protected] and there's mods who've been MIA for a while. How can I remove them as mods?

Wow that was fast thanks so much!

For fairly obvious anti-abuse reasons, mods can't kick other mods. You will have to ask the admins of your instance (this instance, in this case) what they want to do about it.

they can, but only those that were appointed after them

Really? That's news. Is that one of those things that varies whether or not it's presented to you depending on which client you use?

probably. the check for higher modes was changed for 0.19.6 in https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/pull/4860, but before that it seems like all mods could remove other mods.
