I have had some questions that I can't seem to get answered over on world regarding moderation of the 'false'/shell/local beehaw communities left behind.
Idk if anyone here will know, but background essentially is that while the beehaw communities are not live and posts from beehaw/federated instances are not visible, to a world user the community itself appears as normal (albeit with low engagement) and can be posted/commented in as normal with no indication the community is no longer moderated by beehaw mods.
So how does moderation work in this regard? For example is the LGBTQ+@beehaw community now completely unmoderated for world users? Who does user reports made in those communities go to now, as world never had moderators for those communities?
I'm concerned that unless world mutually defederates, there is essentially moderation-free pockets that are rife for trolls to overtake. Then because of the lack of UI indicators that the communities are not the real version can put unsuspecting world users to being exposed to harm under the beehaw banner, which will give the false impression that beehaw allow this behaviour. Can someone help explain how the moderation works in these circumstances?
