Are you joking? Lemmy is basically unmoderated, and the little moderation we have is trash.
- Thats the neat part about lemmy, every instance can do their own thing.
  If you're not happy with the moderation you currently have, you can always check out other instances
  
  Several people have already raised concerns with the fact that they got banned from several unrelated .ml communities by the same mod for breaking the rules in one community. There are several topics with broad appeal that have their largest community on .ml. Switching instances is basically the same as making another account because you're still subject to the .ml moderation.
  
  Then the people should switch over the communities to another instance then
  
  The people don't really do that. A move needs to start from the mods, whether it's because they want to move or because they did something to piss everybody off.
  
  Moderation is community level though.
  If you bubble everything up to instance admins they basically melt from the effort.
  
  I can’t speak for other instances, but we don’t melt from the effort.
  
  We don't either
  
  Yes and no
  If one of our users report something on lemmy.world for example we can remove it for all our users.
  So yes, the post still exists but from the perspective of our instance it's removed.
- You're on one of the best-moderated instances unless you hate trans people.
  
  I’m aware. That’s why I chose this instance. And yet.
  I’m guessing the issue is that instance mods only see reports. What we’re missing is moderators that care about a community and curate it.
