That's frustrating. I think Kbin recently improved it's moderation tools quite a lot, but I'm not involved enough to really have an overview.

I checked out Lemmy for the first time ten months ago from a thread that was shared on Mastodon, it was a completely different product back then. I agree moderation tools need to be a high priority, but there's little doubt the platform has improved a lot over the last year. It saw a sudden growth that nobody was really prepared for, and all in all I think it is impressive how well it has gone so far. Moderation still seems to be better than certain commercial platforms. ;)

I definitely think the moderation itself is better because there is a stronger pool of people doing it, but we are just so severely limited by what we are able to do. For starters, there are no tiers of moderators. You don’t have like a “prime“ and then lower levels with different tiers of access. You basically have to give total control to another moderator, which is a huge risk.
