Harsh but fair.
Really needed a belly laugh today thank you

Ah, Chad McTruth himself on my little instance! My life is finally complete.
You don't think we can see that based on the writings?
I can't answer. Only add that I looked up my own mod action list some months ago and saw that I had been banned from a handful of communities for 3 months. But it had happened like 7 months before, and I never noticed. I'm guessing that is what happened.
It might be possible with 3rd party moderation tools. Just using the web interface, you can only do mod actions from a post in your community. Like, I can't ban someone from FoodPorn from a post they made in, say, PoliticalMemes. I don't have any mod options when viewing communities I am not a moderator for on my app (Connect) or the web interface for Lemmy. World or Pawb.Social, but I have seen a few mentions of more robust mod tools in other apps.
My two questions then are 1) is this even allowed, and 2) if it is, how do I access these tools?
-
I would say yes, it's allowed simply because it's only possible using whatever commands one can access through the API. So the functionality is there, it's just not easily accessed by the default interface. Same with being able to see who voted how on every post (Tesseract has this function) because it's still tracked, just not a thing on the default interface.
-
Try Boost or Voyager, I guess? I only know what I've seen sporadically in conversations about it here on Lemmy and I don't use either of these apps myself.
They added it to the default interface. At least for admins, not sure about mods.
Admins have full control over the entire instance. Of course they get mod options in communities they aren't necessarily mods of on their instance.
Not sure what your comment relates to? I was just pointing out they added the option to the default interface.
tesseract.dubvee.org
The Tesseract frontend has fancier mod tools. For my instance, it's available at t.lemmy.world.
Nothing changed, it was always possible, there might not have been the tooling, but it was always possible through the api.
Can it be done without any third party help?
I don't think so, no. Though I'm not up-to-date on the latest Lemmy UI changes, so they might have added it. But as far as I'm aware, it can't be done without 3rd party tools.
Your reputation precedes you.
Does it precede your ability to answer the question without giving an irrelevant remark though?
OP is talking about the mod @frenchfryenjoyer@lemmings.world. She simultaneously banned a few accounts from her communities and I won't say I can blame her for not wanting to put up with a Kiwifarms troll with genocide denial and Nazi apologia in their post history. https://lemmy.world/modlog?page=1&actionType=All&modId=15038788
OP's question was asked very shortly after Frenchfryenjoyer banned them and their alts from her communities. OP might be another alt of Call Me Leni. The modlog looks suspicious. Modlog for OP's account
Now, yet another one of Leni's alts "PatrickStar" is requesting that another alt appoint them as a mod. https://lemm.ee/post/67572940/21488244
And how would you know what the OP is talking about? Especially considering you are wrong about the supposed alts (with one exception) and the viewpoints and intents of the people you claim to speak for.
I wasn't baiting anyone. It was an honest inquiry and could've at least been answered from afar if anyone was afraid of stepping up to do so. And I have a seven-day-old name, so what? Whatever number of days old it was, the complaint would just adapt to that number to fit the needs of the complainer.
its called cross-banning. reddit does this when problematic conservative subreddits have potential spammers and voters. but it also unilaterally bans innoncent users, which puts them in a vulnerable poisiton to be sitewide banned.
