I came from a place where the local non-reddit non-English forum has so few mods and necessary resources to effectively moderate. Trolls are everywhere which is so detrimental to quality discussion.
Question: do we have mods and the necessary tools and resources in Lemmy to counter them?
You must log in or register to comment.
I mod a community of 14 people and 3 posts. No bots yet :-p
Crossing my fingers things stay tame though, I have no experience being a mod.
I haven’t seen any obvious bots in the wild here (yet), but they’ll come soon enough. There are at least a couple Github repos out there (i.e. this one) with bot libraries so I’d expect some of the old reddit bots could make some sort of a comeback pretty soon.
bots are actually ok if they are not trolls, some are good bots lol
100% agree, I’m actually working on a pretty basic Stable Diffusion bot to plug into one of the AI art communities, only to respond when someone calls it in a comment. I’d also like to see some wiki bots and such, as well as general moderation tools
For the most part I personally have not witnessed any bad behavior or trolls. Lemmy has been a breath of fresh air, and people seem genuinely happy to be here. I hope it stays that way.
BUT…
Have a look at the mod log on any instance. It’s a public log of moderator actions and gets federated along with everything else.
Definitely some people getting banned for the usual reasons. People will be people. 🤷🏻♂️

Thanks for the info
Surprisingly, not at all.

Oh gosh good
Semi related but I got a bunch of communities on the .ml instance, is it worth it to try and get em going in .world as well or is it fine as is for now? .ml’s still currently down when I write this so I want to make sure I have the best practices down.
