MODERATORS
oh man you don't even notice the moderators here. it's so nice, they don't feel the need to butt into every fucking conversation
I do wish it was possible to comment in communities you moderate without having it marked as a moderator comment. Rarely do I want to make an "official" statement but if I'm a mod Lemmy defaults to making any mundane comment appear that way.
I think that is WIP to "wear a moderator hat".
Luckily, multiple accounts are widely supported.
Most admins will have multiple accounts, an official-hat account and a casual account.
After some federation drama, i believe marking posts as "official" or not is in the works (as opposed to mod/admin always being official). I dont know if the "official" hat also aliases the user (so there can be a "moderator" account that any mod can assume)
That would have been smart, yes.
Glad to hear it's being worked on though.
