    All they did was kick a bunch of mods that were harming a community and trying to create drama without even having the balls to discuss openly the reasons they were banning people. The comments about how a moderator that was there for 3 months should have more power than a moderator that had been there for 11 days (despite one of them not having the wellbeing of the community as a priority) is an amazing joke. https://lemmy.world/post/19731457 everyone should read this post and they will quickly understand after reading op and the comments from people like jerkface why this happened. Posting a modlog without context or explanation is acting in pretty bad faith here.

    Also, as a community (lemmy as a whole) we should think if we want to keep people like Beaver who moderates 100+ communities, there are a lot of people moderating way more than they can chew and becoming really stupid, as also seen recently with the bot drama in news on lemmy world. We really love to be repeating reddits problems.

      100+ communities,

      95 of those are inactive.

      There are mods on LW who moderate 10 active communities. Even further, any LW admins can virtually mod all of the LW community.

      also seen recently with the bot drama in news on lemmy world.

      Indeed.

      I take it that was a swipe at me.

      Sorry you feel that way.

      I don’t do as much moderation as my co-mods, and that’s by design. All our moderators are active and spread across the globe.

      I just happen to be the face of the community.

      Also, thanks for being civil. You don’t want to see the DMs mods got. It was brutal.
