    I think it would be better for Lemmy’s development if everyone defederated lemmy.ml. If Dessalines weren’t so busy banning users on other instances for pointing out the Uyghur genocide, he’d have a lot more time to write code.

      the devs of lemmy are already working on it full time. they’re not the ones who do most of the moderation work.

      the thing i’ve always hated about most people outside ml is that they always make assumptions, not even wondering if what they’re saying might be false. if you’re gonna be prissy about something, at least get your facts straight.

        Dessalines does a ton of the moderation on .ml. He and davel are, as far as I can tell, the main moderators for the whole server and all its communities.

        I’m not subscribed to most of their stuff, so it’s hard to check for hard numbers or verify that, but I see him all the time on the “let’s complain about Lemmy.ml moderation” subs. Doing a quick spot-check in the modlog for [email protected], which I am subscribed to, I see:

        • 46% of moderation actions were by davel
        • 39% by dessalines
        • 12% by Arthur Besse
        • 2% by nutomic
        • 0% by the moderators of the community

        That’s extremely consistent with what I have observed from the rest of the communities on the server.

        not even wondering if what they’re saying might be false

        Why do I hear Alanis Morissette in the distance?

        Funny, why is it so common to see the lead dev in the modlog, then?
