Also known as @kersploosh@sh.itjust.works
I have appointed you as the mod, and removed the inactive mods. None of them have visible activity since 2023.
@JoeChio@lemmy.world, @VioletteRei@lemmy.world, @VioletteRei@lemmy.world, @taminightshade@lemmy.world, @Oswald@lemmy.world, I’m mentioning you here for transparency in case you come back to Lemmy and wonder what happened.
Is this why some users downvote everything? To mark posts as read?
At this point I think I’ll leave those posts deleted. OP changed the post titles before deleting, then subsequently deleted their account and all comments, so the discussions in those posts are full of holes.
I only see Blaze in the modlog, and that user has been unbanned. If you are aware of other users that are somehow not in the modlog then let me know.
Yes, Blaze has been unbanned from the community.
It’s in the “Blocked Instances” section, where it should be.
sh.itjust.works explicitly blocks Threads. They held a vote among the local users: https://sh.itjust.works/post/11308397
It is odd that threads.net appears on our instances page, while the same is not true for other Lemmy instances which have not blocked Threads. Lemmy.world is federated with Threads by default simply because it is not on our instance block list. I do not believe our instance has done anything special to force a link with Threads. I mentioned it in our admin chat and will update this post if I learn anything.
However, even with threads.net listed on our instances page, Threads does not seem to work with Lemmy. I am able to search and view Mastodon user profiles from lemmy.world, but it does not work for any of the Threads test profiles.
Edit: The lemmy.world database has no records for a person on threads.net. Our best guess is that a Threads user tried to interact with lemmy.world. Perhaps the process got far enough for our instance to recognize threads.net and add it to our instances list, but not far enough to create a record of the user in our DB.
Done. You are now the new mod of !lemmyapps@lemmy.world.
On a related note, I recommend using to a lemmy.world account to moderate a lemmy.world community. Reports do not federate across instances Lemmy bug #3781, so you will not see reports that may be created in your community. If you decide to create a lemmy.world account you should now be able to give it mod rights by yourself. If it doesn’t work then let me know and I can help. Sometimes adding/removing mod rights is buggy across instances, too.
No problem. I added you as a mod and removed the old inactive mod. Note that, since your account is on a different instance than the community, you will not receive community reports. It’s a known bug in Lemmy. It looks like a pretty chill community so I don’t expect you will get many reports, but if you want to cover your bases then I recommend making a lemmy.world alt and adding it to the community mod team so you will have a way to see them. If you use the Photon front end (https://phtn.app/) instead of the standard lemmy ui then you can assign anyone as a mod regardless of whether they have posted/commented in the community.
@kwoodall@lemmy.world, mentioning you here for transparency in case you come back to Lemmy and wonder what happened.
