There’s also the minor wrinkle that communities can only be moderated by users on the same instance
Really? The lemmy documentation says you can. You need an account on the same instance only to be an admin.
Go figure, guess I heard people talking about the restriction on admins and heard "moderator". Thanks for keeping me honest.
I actually tested appointing a moderator from an outside instance once in the past, but only via the user page, so I never had a chance to find out that the "Appoint Moderator" UI is actually tucked away inside the comment expandos.
When I was appointed a moderator in 0.17.x the database crashed hard and admin needed to manualy edit the database. It is technically supported but very buggy and untested.
