A good example is https://lemmy.world/c/documentaries [https://lemmy.world/c/documentaries] One of their mods, https://lemmy.world/u/sabbah [https://lemmy.world/u/sabbah], currently mods 54 communites despite only being on Lemmy for about a month and has never posted on c/documentaries (except for his post asking for people to join his mod team). [https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/9c0be4b4-87b6-457d-8159-96d0ac519d87.png] The other mod, https://lemmy.world/u/AradFort [https://lemmy.world/u/AradFort], has one post to c/documentaries and moderates 18 communities. [https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/2ae5cf3f-a6d9-4fb5-aa81-7c0a25fcf1d4.png] Does Lemmy.World have a plan to remove this kind of cancer before we start getting reddit supermods here too? Edit: This [https://lemmy.world/comment/1396918] comment shows how this is even more dangerous than I had thought. Edit2: Official answer from LW admin is here [https://lemmy.world/comment/1397724] Final: Was going to create an issue for this on the Lemmy github, but I browsed for awhile and found that it had already been done. If anyone wants to continue the discussion there, here it is - https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3452 [https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3452] Perhap we need another issue for the problem in the original edit (It being impossible currently to remove a ‘founding’ mod without destroying either the community of their account)
