Most large instances have a support community. That seems like the suitable place to raise a moderation issue with specific a community on the instance.
Yes, but at the same time, it depends on the instance policy as a whole.
Some instance admins prefer to not interfere with how mods handle their communities (which is also a valid stance, I'm not criticizing it), but that means that in the end it wouldn't have that much impact. And most of the users wouldn't probably see the posts in the support community.
This would be a perfect solution I think, if most major mods and subs weren’t hosted on .world and .ml.
The conflict of interest is real and intense; I have been told directly that certain problematic .world mod activity cannot be addressed because the mods in question are close friends with instance admins.
Thanks for your thoughts :)
The world admins are some of the most garbage people on the whole fediverse.
