I mod 9 communities. It's quieted down a lot, but I'm not working hard to drive engagement and content back up right now.
The mod tools are practically non-existent, so why should I work to bring a community to a place where I won't be able to manage it?
I need to see a feed of just what I moderate so I can scan all comments for issues. It's not realistic to read every post one by one.
There needs to be options for minimum 'karma" score so a new user can't just pop in and spam.
There are other needs that have been discussed in other threads already, but that's my biggest gripe.
Indeed, mod tools are something that seriously need working. I dunno if they are working on it. Hopefully yes.
Regardless, please do create content and try to improve lemmy!
