Comment on What features are missing from piefed, or, why aren't we reccommending piefed instead of lemmy?

It would be better/faster/easier to simply build a separate tool that can be useful for moderators, instead of trying to shoehorn it in the existing API. But I don’t really think that this is something that really bothers people enough, given that last time I asked if I could get 20 people interested to sponsor the development of the moderation tool, and to this day only one person showed up.

Piefed built in on their software without a separate tool

And by doing so, it makes it available only for moderators with accounts on piefed. What is the current TAM? 20 people?
A separate tool could connect to any server federating “Report” activities. What is the current TAM? Any moderator of a group, no matter if their account is on Lemmy/PieFed/PixelFed/Misskey/Mastodon…

360 currently, so around 18 times that.
The appetite seems limited as you pointed out yourself in the comment above.

Please, read things in context. I’m talking about moderators.
Are all the 360 PieFed users also community moderators?
