No we do not. Why you might ask? Because the Lemmy’s developers don’t want to allow it because it’s “a slippery slope”
dessalines:
We’ve discussed this in another issue at length, but I’m personally against any moderator / admin ability to “modify” other people’s content in any way other than removing / restoring it.
Its a vector for abuse, and a slippery slope that eventually leads to mods and admins being able to edit other people’s posts and comments.
I think this is ridiculous and that an ability to mark a comment as NSFW is not harming “user’s integrity” but what can you do?
That’s a ridiculous rationale. If the Lemmy developers actually cared about the integrity of users’ posts, they wouldn’t have released software without support for cryptographic signing.
Yes, moderation tools in general aren’t that great on here, nor is there a lot of interest from the developers to improve them.
Most moderators rely on bots and scripts. I myself have written bash scripts to fetch all reports from instances using alts because reports don’t federate.
I imagine lemmy should have a whole RPG system to tag and sort not just by mods but by community feedback too. Basically an extension of up or downvoting that adds useful tags.
Please mark this as NSFW
Do mods not have the power to do that on lemmy?

Huh, I guess developing sublinks makes a lot more sense now.

Interesting, we also have the same thing where reports and private messages to bots are crawled to a specified matrix chat to keep track of things.

that doesn’t make any sense whatsoever.
