MODERATORS
I actually think Lemmy needs more work before it grows much bigger. The mod tools are really lackluster currently. And that was a big reason people wanted to leave Reddit.
It's tough to sell some of the niche communities without proper spoiler tagging, too. Need something easier to use that works on all platforms.
Proper spoiler tagging is important
I Jerboa uses this format
: : : spoiler Title
Without the spaces between the colons, this is just to show what it looks like.
: : :
Title
This is with the spaces removed
Lemmy in general uses this but a lot of mobile UI's don't have proper implementations (or at least they didn't for a while). I'm not sure if liftoff is still in development but the reason I switched back to Jerboa was because spoiler support was finally added
