It's kinda funny. I was a mod on reddit (I guess technically still am) and I've always felt that mod tools on reddit were very poor. Having to use Toolbox and RES and such. And moderating on the go from the official app was garbage (thank god for Apollo).
Then I get here to Beehaw, where I volunteer to mod again. And I find the mod tools are even worse! I get that most people didn't leave reddit because of poor mod tools. It was the API and content moderation issues that drove people away. But still, I was expecting Lemmy to have at least equal capabilities.
the project was admittedly a lot more manageable previously when it had a fraction of the users it has now, but it's still definitely bizarre to come to what is essentially a four year old project and find nothing but the barest of barebones tools.
