Why did two people downvote this? That’s exactly what happened. The devs stated they didn’t care much for mod tools at the moment and also stated they wouldn’t remove exploding heads from join-lemmy in another thread in the AMA, which is a whole other level of wtf.

The reality of it is that the platform wasn’t well thought out. The primary motivation was to copy Reddit functionally from a users perspective. That moderation tooling wasn’t even much of an afterthought is telling considering the language choice.
