I am trying to figure that out

I will sort it out

The account is @modbot@infosec.pub

Heya, I’m the admin for infosec.pub, along with a bunch of other fediverse instances including infosec.exchange. I’ve been on the fediverse for a long time - infosec.exchange turns 8 next month, for example.

With each event that disenfranchises people (twitter bought by Musk, Reddit API, etc), I’ve seen a big surge in new instances. My observation is that many people get into running multi-user instances without really understanding what it takes, time-wise, emotionally, and financially.

Some of the software, like lemmy, but also kbin, calckey, and others, get pushed into the spotlight before they’re really in a reasonable spot to support the incoming community. Lemmy is relatively well functioning and complete, but only around a core set of use cases, whereas some of the others were just nowhere near ready.

I don’t know of anything on the lemmy roadmap to add account portability.

In any event, I’m here for the long term, though I do have to keep reminding our user base that this service is free to use, but not free to run, and therefore donations are much appreciated though not mandatory.

ok. I set up threativore and added you as a moderator. I doubt it’s as sophisticated as what reddit had to offer. The instructions are here: https://github.com/db0/threativore/blob/main/README_manual.md

I will install one today and send you the details

Lemmy’s admin tooling is… basic

Just to clarify - post with your moderator account.

Thanks. Can you make a post in that community? It’s the only way I know of to make someone a moderator

Sounds like a plan. Just let me know

As far as I can tell, @SqueamishOssifrage hasn’t logged in to the site for about 2 years, and to be honest, I’d rather have a the community moderated, so if you want, I’ll add you as a moderator.
