    First things first, gotta prevent the server from melting down before the mod tools come along.

    Can’t mod if there’s nothing to mod!

    I’m currently working on an admin / moderator web frontend that’ll allow for some moderation tasks that Lemmy doesn’t support yet.

    If I get somewhere, I’ll make it open source for instance admins to run.

        Right now, the web interface can be used for tasks that require database access, like getting a list of posts that are marked as deleted (for purging them after x amount of time), pulling GDPR packages when users request them, showing statistics, etc. There’s also a bot account (in my case, @CloudComet@social.fossware.space) which can be controlled through the web interface and which can automatically pin or lock stuff, post threads or comments, etc.

        It’s just the beginning and I didn’t have much time to work on it yet, because I don’t find much time to concentrate these days (2 little children at home).

        I also expect many of the features my tool has or has planned to be only temporary, as they’ll most likely be implemented in Lemmy directly.

      No kind of about it. He’s also a hypocrite who demonizes gender affirming surgery for trans people in spite of having gender affirming pectoral implants himself.

          Indeed it is. It’s very common amongst right wing propagandists like him. Hypocrisy I mean, not (necessarily) pec implants.

      Honestly, whenever I see this meme, I almost ALWAYS disagree with the OP every time. It just goes to show those that gravitate towards this meme to be the template for making their argument usually don’t know wtf their talking about… hopefully Crowder disappears from the public consciousness along with all the other hate filled right wing nonsense.

      All that said, I’m optimistic Lemmy will get better moderation tools soon.
