The majority of posts are spam.

Is there any point in reporting them?

Wow! This is a huuuge magazine to go almost completely unmoderated. It’s almost 20,000!
I can understand how some of the smaller magazines had their mods abandon them but this one is surprising!

Both mods have been MIA for 2 months from the looks of their profile activity so I'd assume the sub is basically abandoned from a moderation standpoint

@Pons_Aelius I was reporting the posts previously, but gave up.d

Yep. the mods are mia.

The spam here is getting out of hand. A mag with ~20,000 subs and zero mods...

random is a cess pit as well.

Mod from m/AskKbin here, really unfortunate to see this mag's owner/mod go inactive.

If you check out the modlog, https://kbin.social/m/RedditMigration/modlog you can see that @Shortcake last did some moderation activity six days ago, deleting and blocking stuff from federated user imona at kbin.melroy.org

I think the admins like @ernest wouldn't do anything at this point, since the mod reappeared somewhat recently to reclaim the mantle. Instead, we need to figure out how to reach out to Shortcake and figure out how to get moderation more active here again.

[-] Pons_Aelius@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

No, both mods have no activity for months.

Well, another mag to block.

[-] abff08f4813c@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

Actually, @Shortcake got back to me two days ago and took care of the spam - or so we thought. I'm sending another message now since we're getting more spam.

I'm wondering if an email was sent out as part of the updates that @ernest and @admin are doing to kbin, which might have grabbed the mods attention here. The lack of email notifications makes it hard to keep up, I'm thinking.

[-] Pons_Aelius@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

A mod who pops in once every couple of weeks is beyond useless.

[-] abff08f4813c@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

I'm actually happy to give a vote of confidence in @Shortcake who did a great job moderating this magazine in the beginning.

If that individual would just return to checking this magazine more frequently, I'm happy to leave things as-is.

But if that's not possible, hopefully Shortcake will appoint someone as a third mod soon so this magazine can get cleaned up. (Speak of - any volunteers?)

You can nag admins of an instance to appoint new mods

[-] Pons_Aelius@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

Nah, the mag is not that important.

Unsub and block seems to be the only effective approach.

[-] thingsiplay@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

@Pons_Aelius We could migrate RedditMigration to a new "NeoRedditMigration". :D

[-] Rentlar@beehaw.org 3 points 1 year ago

It would be a RedditMigrationMigration magazine!
