something doesn't seem to be right there. i can reproduce it with this comment but not with other comments they created. also, the comment doesn't show up on their profile.
at least in lemmy's db structure, it wouldn't make that much of a difference compared to other tables that use significantly more space:
how does that affect db bloat? or rather, how does it protect from that?
please mark this post as nsfw as soon as possible. the next lemmy version should enforce this when the community is marked as nsfw, but most instances are running the stable version that does not have this functionality yet.
can you think of any solution that is not a variation of “keep finding fresh volunteers to work until they burn out”?
how would paying admins prevent burnout? the only difference i see here is that it is probably easier to find people willing to do it as a paid job than volunteers, but they can both burn out. this would just change it from "keep finding fresh volunteers" to "keep finding fresh job applicants".
Ruud and Stux are not the only people involved.
I'm personally only involved in Ruud's side of things (mostly .world instances). Stux' platforms are managed separately, I can't say too much about those. Afaik finances between Ruud's instances and Stux' instances are also separate.
On the .world side, we currently have 6 active members for infra. For moderation, LW currently has 4 active instance admins plus some community team members with elevated privileges. Other .world platforms have moderation separate from LW. We certainly don't have resources to hire professional admins, but I'm sure that we would find a viable solution if Ruud ever wanted to leave things behind. Not all solutions require paying someone a salary for it, which seems to be your implication here.
probably. the check for higher modes was changed for 0.19.6 in https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/pull/4860, but before that it seems like all mods could remove other mods.
I've removed both other mods now
they can, but only those that were appointed after them
internal team discussion relating to that request. searching by trump was not really an option, but searching for the username did bring it up.
you requested this here: https://midwest.social/comment/12017524
you can leave the mod team by using the "Leave mod team" button on the community page

yay, database inconsistencies.
looks like kbin.earth has a broken setup at some point where their user profiles were using http instead of https urls and that results in random breakage in lemmy:
