This should help us cut down on the trolls. We recommend other instances do the same, because they will likely be targeted also.
I apologize for all their gore-posts as well, no one should have to see that. We’ll try to look for more admins from different time-zones as well to get them faster.
The two other possibilities we have currently as options, are turning on required email verification, and as a last resort, closing signups. I personally would rather not do either, but they are options.
My 2 year old history with 1600+ comments is up for everyone.
Online twice a day. Also, active communication with users.
Have put myself on the frontlines multiple times. See soferman incident as example. https://lemmy.ml/post/69058
I have repeatedly stopped many incidents from happening.
I use zero sockpuppets and actively advocate against them, and have expertise in identifying sockpuppets via my stylometry, OSINT and OPSEC skills.
Optional:
Active moderator of c/privacy and c/technology, also c/privatelife
I contribute via comment suggestions and sometimes even modmail, to help improve Lemmy. This goes hand in hand with putting myself on the frontlines, and putting myself at risk in between crossfire.
I report a lot of issues and actively moderate reported posts and comments.
I am from India and I speak Hindi and English, so I can serve not just a wide timezone gap, but moderate a different kind of audience as well, compared to non-Indian foreigners here.
