MODERATORS
 

I'm not sure how feasible this would be technically, but I wanted to suggest a feature that could be really useful for community creators and moderators on Lemmy.

Would it be possible to add the ability for a user to transfer ownership (Head Mod role) of a Lemmy community directly within the Summit app, without needing to go to the Community Instance website?


Summit already lets users manage many aspects of their communities—such as editing the:

display name,

icon,

banner,

description,

NSFW/moderator-only settings,

and even deleting the community

—all in-app.


It would be incredibly helpful if ownership transfers could be handled the same way.

This feature could be especially useful for users who are overwhelmed, stepping back from moderating, or consolidating their mod duties across multiple instances—particularly those who primarily use the app and rarely access Lemmy via a browser.
