The mods of all the major communities there remove comments criticism Hexbear and usually follow it up with a ban. It’s absolutely clear what is happening and it shouldn’t be allowed to continue.

    I see, it would be nice to ask someone who knows for sure.

    @Rooki@lemmy.world is this the case? Is the ModId field a custom config that needs to be enabled and/or is it a feature added specifically to Lemmy.world (If you don’t know would you mind asking someone who might know and getting back to me then?)? If that is the case I’ll edit my responses with this new information.

      I will check the config and let you know. I dont think we have something custom. I think we have a config enabled

      They have the option “Hide Mod Names” active. and LW not

        I checked the 12 most popular instances, and only lemmy.world and lemmynsfw.com seem to have ModId enabled, so perhaps the default config setting is to disable it. This is assuming that it’s a config thing at all, but the only other possibility would be that those two sites share forked code.

          Rooki said that there’s an option called “Hide Mod Names”, it’s likely a default value in the standard Lemmy package, likely the reason why it isn’t on more instances. I’ll ask the other instance admins I know about it later.
