Awesome! I’m all the somebodies - I just can’t work out how to remove mods yet! It’s great to see posts being made from a number of people who aren’t me too. Thanks everyone!
I’ve tried this where I used a back-up lemmy.world account to start communities over there and had no luck. Try the three dots to expand your options on a post and see if remove mod is there, as that’s where the option I’d to make someone a mod.
I have the “remove - ban - appoint mod” option for every user except my other mod accounts. Some alts had the option to remove myself as a moderator, but not the account I created the community with. I’ve messaged to admin, I think that’s the only person who can remove a creator-mod.
That’s my current best guess. I suppose it’s to stop the creator of a community from being usurped but it does also seem impossible for them to voluntarily stand-down. I suppose it’s to stop communities from having no moderators but it should check if there are others. I started an autistic women community for someone else and am not exactly comfortable staying on as a moderator.
