This is a good way to acquire “legit” power mod status.
Step 1: make an alt account which squats on community names
Step 2: have the alt account post open moderator requests on the communities
Step 3: have your alt appoint your normal account as a moderator. Since your normal account doesn’t have a direct connection to the community creation, it’s just seen as a helpful custodian of the fediverse
Step 4: ???
Step 5: profit
My yarn and pushpin budget is too high already, I don't need this kind of encouragement to seek out more ulterior motives and sneaky shenaniganery.
Good point though.
