So, I see r/NZ is back. That's it? What an anemic protest. I guess I'm honestly surprised more people don't care. I expected the protest to go on longer, but I guess I overestimated how much the average user cared about this.

Unfortunately, I think it probably means we won't see a lot of growth in Lemmy now. Shame.

It's possibly worse for me, because for every issue I have to try to work out if it's a Lemmy thing or something wrong with the way I've set it up (there have been many of those issues, but as far as I know all the current bugs are Lemmy issues).

I’ve already been appointed moderator for the stopdrinking community.

Definitely keep in mind the bug about instances disappearing when an user from an instance is appointed mod of a community on a different instance and then they try to edit the community! (I think this only applies to Lemmy version 0.17.4 but this is the latest and most instances are on this now because of a security issue in the previous version).

I really appreciate all your hard work here! You've been replying to support issues very quickly and adequately.

I won't edit the community then, thanks for the heads up. I think it's not even possible, the other moderator wasn't able to edit the sidebar info, only the creator could do it, but wasn't responding anymore.

It will get better over time I'm sure.

Thanks! I'm just doing my best :)

Hmm I've created the communities, and have assigned mods and they are able to edit the sidebar. I haven't done anything special. Maybe because they are the first mod they get the access?
