    More granular moderation tools.

    But in the last dev AMA they made it clear that wasn’t a priority. Honestly it killed a large chunk of excitement I had about Lemmy. Without ways for mods to keep the communities free of shit heads the communities won’t be sustainable and will stop growing.

      Could you link the AMA?

      Curious what they didn’t want to work on. The current moderation tool setup is not going to work long term lol

      As someone frequently labeled as a shithead, I’m glad I’m in a community where I get to stay.

        You can still be shitty in those communities too, but with better moderation tools other people who want a space without bigots and hatred can still maintain those. So we can have both, right now it’s mainly the shitty people that are happy. Which is not good for building lasting communities.

      The mod tools are pretty basic but the essential stuff is already there IMO. The only thing that I’ve been missing is a modmail or the ability to remove comment chains. And Lemmy is still small enough that I can do it all by hand.
