I thought I understood, but I still have Beehaw content in my feed, so I guess I don’t understand after all… Can someone dumb it down for me?

    Ok I’m one of the new users and it looks like I’ve commented on communities hosted there maybe a half dozen times. I guess I’m part of the problem 😔

    But I’m a little unclear about the role an admin plays on an instance? Are they actually taking on mod responsibilities, in which case I can certainly understand how 4 would be totally swamped?

    I guess in my head I sort of imagined each community has its own mod(s) and the admins would only step in as a kind of “supreme court” if some dispute gets out of hand? I’ve probably got this totally wrong.

      Yeah that’s what I was wondering. I’m just going off what they said. I know they don’t allow communities to be created except what they did themselves, so maybe they are taking on all the mod responsibilities?
