Basically, It would be nice to point out what those platforms are & what are their “Killer Features

For anyone who wants a quick glance at which platform might be suitable

    You’re on LW, newer versions of Lemmy are better in that regard.

    https://tesseract.dubvee.org/ is a better frontend for moderation. Allows you to see votes as a mod, and ban users who never commented or posted.

    I literally can’t even view a per-community modlog on desktop.

    There’s an orange “modlog” button in the sidebar of every community that shows the community modlog?

      Whoops! I didn’t even notice the Modlog because (at least for me) it’s tucked away at the very bottom of the sidebar and nestled between the list of mods and some statistics I don’t really care too much about. :P Genuinely my bad, though; I should’ve looked harder. Appreciate it now that I can finally see it!

        Don’t get too excited. It seems to be missing a bunch of stuff.

        I don’t really know the explanation for why the Lemmy API seems to just randomly drop stuff out of the modlog if it’s more than 5-10 entries long, but you’ll have to search for the exact stuff you’re specifically looking for a lot of the time. Maybe I am misunderstanding what I’m seeing but I’ve gotten the strong impression that’s what I’m seeing. It’s similar to how looking at a user’s profile randomly drops comments out after a certain time and just switches to posts only, so it’s hard to search through for specific stuff you’re looking for. Apparently that is going to be fixed in 0.20.

      The Tesseract front end is just completely superior for moderation imo. It took me a little bit of getting used to, but it is clean
