Tbh they recognize that it’s a major response, but they genuinely can’t try much else given the tools at their disposal.
Part of the fediverse is that each community operates according to their own rules, and while they can talk to other admins, they can’t force them into anything like reviewing registrations or the like.
they could have gotten more mods. That’s the temporary solution until better mod tools come along.
That’s maybe true. I say maybe, only because for instance-wide moderation (as I think they’d like), I don’t know if Lemmy has a position between Admin & Mod with that kind of capability.
For Beehaw, where they’re limiting community creation, I think they’re only able to do that by restricting it to the Admins, meaning adding more mods would also mean more admins in their case. If admin abilities in Lemmy are like in any other software I’m aware of, you wouldn’t really want to just dole that out to anyone, so I can see why it’s not so simple a matter for them with the kind of carefully moderated community their aiming for given the current tools.
that’s true, but for a community as restricted as beehaw wehre users can’t create new communities, even if there’s no such position as “instance-wide mod”, the admins can just add more mods to each community.
You’re right, I made myself wonder after writing that. Checked over there & found that they have done just that in some (maybe all?) of their communities.
