Mods of Lemmy what can I add in Sync to make your life easier?
Modlog and reports are top of my list.

Reports are the big one. Ideally, with inline context, and the ability to remove the content in question from the report queue itself, rather than having to navigate to the page (though that should also be an option)
Also, if there was a way of highlighting reported comments inline when viewing them (this isn't an out of the box lemmy feature though, so I'm not sure how feasible it is).
Also, it would be nice if you could put a bit of text in the reporting screen encouraging people to provide context/explanation of why the post is being reported. So often, people don't include any/enough information
-
To be honest, I'm really not sure what mod powers I even have on Lemmy. The things that stick out to me are:
- Edit sub 'about' page
- Lock threads
- Ban users, also view banned users and un-ban
Thank you for making Sync + Lemmy and thank you for working so hard to make it user/mod friendly!
-
You can already lock threads + ban users.
Viewing currently banned would be a great addition along with editing the about page. Cheers!

Adding in here because this is what prompted the idea, the ability to see history of similar offences. For example a post be user X is reported for spam, in the report it would show the report for spam, and also show that they have been reported 2 times for spam in the past. Would help a lot on finding repeat offenders, though I'd definitely a "nice to have" and not a feature to dedicate much time to for the initial mod tools release

I mod a sub that uses daily threads for organization. Right now I have an unstable solution for creating these posts on a schedule. Once every week or two it requires manual intervention.
Being able to schedule posts from Sync would be so much easier, but admittedly I'm probably the only one who'd make use of it.
-
No, this sounds like a great idea and something I'd like to see as well.
-
+1, I don't have a lot of posts I need to schedule, but I do weekly threads and it would be nice to get them set up in advance if I know I've got something going on at the normal time.
-
It would be great for populating smaller communities without just spamming them in bursts at the same time each day.

Copying in from discord:
Adding support for approving applications.

To piggy back off this, a notification when you have a new user if you have an open registration instance would also be cool (although maybe make it a off by default for instances of larger size that don't care and see many new users a day).
-

I would like to be notified if another mod has already addressed a report. As it stands now, we each get a report notification on web, but if they address it before I even check to see it, then the notification disappears. I think having modlog notifications could solve this as another way.
Also, I would like to be notified of all removed content. A user can post rule breaking content and then remove it themselves before a report can be created or a mod can see it.
-
This. Really it's a problem trying to mod on lemmy because of combining instance admin and mod logs into one. But a feature like this would help.

I'm currently using Liftoff, the one thing that would make me switch to a different client rn would be mod tools (Queue, Remove, Approve). Last time I checked, there was no android client that provided any mod tools.
-
Long term thing that would be nice, reddit style mod log, like a per sub or all modded subs choice.
Lemmy desktop is in dire need of that too tbh.
-
reddit style mod log, like a per sub
Checking the community sidebar, it does link to modlogs per community. E.g here is the modlog for this same continuity here:
or all modded subs choice.
Could you expand on this?

Other than reports, the big one for us is new user requests.
-
Not a mod, but discuss.online doesn't work for me anymore
They have a post up explaining why - apparently the app needs modifying or updating to make it work?

I feel the lemmy changes may affect more users/servers than just me
Cheers!

Interesting to know it's a time stamp breaking app clients. Should have figured that since it shows a java error about time when trying to view my profile, rest of the site is 502.
-
Thanks for posting this. I was going to do the same.

YOU ARE THE GOAT, LJ!!! This will be so helpful for not just sync users, but for the whole lemmy community in general!!
-
Well, last I checked there was an issue with reports not going to remote mods. Not sure if the issue still exists, or if this is something that needs to be solved on server side.
-
The ability to delete a community that I created would be handy.
-
One thing I think would be helpful is a blurring of any and all images by default.
Basically if someone posts something vulgar (like the dude's butt covered in crap spliced onto a photo of a decapitated african child) I'd like to see that lightly blurred so I can say "okay yeah, that's an obvious ban" without actually having to see the full resolution image.
-
Am I able to view reports in app?
-
I really enjoy the hide read posts option, but it also hides posts in a community I moderate. I would like an option to create an exclusion list of communities from hide read posts, or something in that area that makes it so that the posts in the communities I moderate aren't hidden. Thank you in advance!
edit: nevermind. I figured out that I can untick the experimental option to keep hidden posts hidden on refresh, then go to my community and refresh 🙂
