I'm so looking forward to this - I've read most of the comics this draws from and it looks like Gunn has had a tonne of fun with the concept.
Stop teasing Bruce - I want this yesterday!
You'd need one to receive reports but your lemm.ee account can be a Mod over there.
The instance is the home of two of the core Lemmy devs, defederating would be a last resort for Admins.
Personally, I've never had much of an issue with their users (they tend not to cause too much trouble outside of their instance) so it hasn't felt necessary.
I imagine they'll all have counterparts elsewhere eventually. Did my bit with !horrormovies@lemm.ee.
Just FYI, you don't need an account on another Instance to become a Mod there (you do need one to start a community).
If mods are proven PTBs then admins should remove them imo, or it reflects negativity on the instance.
I agree. Although each instance can run themselves as they see fit, the idea that a community is the fiefdom of the Mods seems a holdover from Reddit which was, at least until recently, almost too big to manage. I've been helping run online communities for a long time and when it was a forum on a site, you had a responsibility to make sure it was run as well as it could be. Lemmy feels like a return to that era.
My take is that it isn't my instance, I run it for the users and this should apply to the Mods too.
I've declined the opportunity to Mod a community on lemmy.ml, which is really not like me.
Asking for a friend?
You've got to admire his spunk.
It might just be the dolphin is a bit of dick, which is why others of its kind don't want to hang out with it, so putting it in a park might not help.
It might just get bored or find a new pod but it could also kill a small child, so...
