Reddit calls for “a few new mods” after axing, polarizing some of its best
Reddit calls for “a few new mods” after axing, polarizing some of its best
They did make a post about it, Lemmy is no where near large enough for them to be interested. Their mission is to showcase history on a large public platform.
They said they are not happy with how the company has acted, but it would take a much bigger issue to get them to consider moving.
I also don’t think Lemmy is ready for everyone, especially in terms of moderation. The tools are very limited and hard to access. I have to navigate to each post to deal with it, and the only 3 options (right next to one another) are ‘remove post’, ‘ban from community’ and ‘appoint as mod’.
There’s also no modmail or automod tools, which are really important as a community gets large.
It’s fine for now with the communities I’m moderating, but I’d understand if some Reddit communities don’t feel ready
The lack of any automatic moderation is why I didn’t move what was my sub to lemmy.
Admins stripped me of the role on Thursday even though I complied with opening the subreddit… They put freaking powermods in my place and there is already a bunch of drama happening there.
