is there a particular third party app that’s useful? or should it all be handled from a desktop website

    Here’s what I do:

    • occasionally post stuff and comment

    I really haven’t had any issues on the two I mod, but they’re pretty small communities. And honestly, at Lemmy’s scale, if you’re feeling the need to use tools, you’re probably moderating too strictly, or you’re moderating a massive community.

        Are there any stats to suggest that? I don’t mean in a “prove it or gtfo” kind of way but I maintain a community for the Pulsar text editor on lemmy.ml (back before it was cool /hipster) when there weren’t really any other (popular) instances. We have no political ideology (as a group, not speaking for individuals within it) and it is meant to be a Fediverse alternative to our Subreddit for discussion and support. The last thing I want is for people to not have access to it because instances are blocking it or people are shying away from lemmy.ml in general.

        I’ve considered it, yeah. There aren’t many posts, and I’ve been thinking of posting a bunch there to get it more popular.

        Or maybe I’ll make a new, related community with a little broader appeal, idk. I find avoiding lemmy.ml is usually more enjoyable.
