      Thanks for checking. I cannot see anyone in the mod logs. I just realised my subscription was pending. Is that because that sub is set to approval needed? If mods don’t exist, how do people get in? Do you need to be on lemmy.ml to do that or can you mod from a different lemmy instance?

        the “appoint as mod” operation appears not to be federating. your user page on lemmy.ml shows you as a moderator, but on your home server it does not. (even after i just removed you and re-added you.)

        maybe @[email protected] can help?

        the ‘subscription pending’ thing is a known bug, and I think unrelated to the moderator status not federating. if i understand correctly, you are in fact actually subscribed.

          Federation has failed on this, and due to the strong stance from moderators here on defederation from threads, I have made an account here:

          I have a post here, but I will also post from that account to confirm it is me: https://lemmy.ml/post/2249613

            ok, it’s transferred to you now. i also removed the other mods and removed and re-added your other account… but that still didn’t federate. making your lemmy.ml account a mod did, though.

                nice. hopefully when both instances have upgraded to a version with that commit you can use this account to remove and re-add your moderator status for your account on the other instance, if you want.
