So im a refugee and started a community. Im looking around playing with things i just wonder if anybody has tips or how to do the moderating. I dont seem to see a lot of options or how to moderate. Thanks in advance

    From my limited experience so far:

    • Comments and posts have additional options for things like removing, blocking the user, etc.
    • There’s a report queue in the header of the website, the little shield icon
    • You can edit the sidebar of your community, so you can add rules and so on there.
    • You can pin posts in your community

    I’m similarly trying to figure out moderating my new community. Like the other user stated I haven’t found any moderating ‘portal’ but instead when you try to edit a post, tool, or click edit on the sidebar we as mods have the additional power within there to do what we need.

    It’s also very very early days on lemmy and now that the people are rolling in the updates will start rolling in. It’s by the people for the people and it seems some are furiously working on their own time to get apps/ servers/ the general site updated. I’m optimistic in the coming months we’ll have better ui all around.

        Same feelings here. On reddit since 2009 or 2010 and honestly discovering lemmy feels like when I first discovered reddit. It should be an improvement in the end and with time.

        Good luck with the dark souls community! I’ve been wanting to dip my toes in the universe with Elden Ring but been super busy this summer.
