Just out of curiosity, what's the advantage to them having their account on the same Instance as the community?

Less likely to accidentally loose access due to defederation? 🤷‍♂️

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Yea that makes sense.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Federation shenanigans would be my guess. If you were on instance B and moderating instance A then instance B admins would have control of your account instead of instance A admins. So if for some reason instance B admins decide to ban that user then they are prevented from moderating for instance A.

there are bugs on moderating communities on other instances. like mode actions do not propagate to federated instances if done from a different instance.

but don't take my word for it, i don't have a source.

Its a good idea to have communities moderated by local users, in case there are any issues with federation or reports federating.

I’ll take one for the team, bang through some privileges and I’ll start moderating the shit out of this community.

No pooping, beans and stroganoff for everyone!

I’m slowly migrating to the Fediverse. Just created pixel fed account.

Posted a meme.

Two questions:

When I view my post in my account I see a link to image instead of image.

And not sure how to sort memes by new.

And to the topic of this thread… I would like to volunteer but I’m still finding me way. When I’m more confident I shall volunteer.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

It's a pity that it is limited to lemmy.ml :/

  1. I'm on lemmy.ml
  2. I have posted here several times, some posts reaching 500+ upvotes
  3. Can enforce rules
[–] [email protected] 0 points 11 months ago

I think memes also needs a couple more rules. Specifically I think the posts should be memes.

I posted a bunch in this community before it surged in June / July. I still comment moderately here, and read comment threads moderately.

Overall I'm not super active. I would just watch my regular feed and comment threads like I currently do, and if I see something uncivil, I'll intervene. So if I am chosen, it would be ideal to have other mods as well, as I may not be enough on my own.

Done, thanks!
