      Hiya! No, I’m not moderating there. I think my request is orphaned at the moment because of the miscommunication.

      Go ahead and request to mod, not much to it really.

      Just FYI, once you’re given the mod role, you have a finite amount of time (not sure how much) to post and claim the mod role. That wasn’t explained very clearly

            You should have mod access now too!

            To clarify what happened with your earlier request, the default Lemmy UI is a bit weird when it comes to appointing someone as a mod. The UI for it only appears when clicking on a post or comment by the user in the community.

            Meanwhile, some alternative UIs like Photon let you add new mods directly. That’s the method I prefer to use, since there is less back and forth. That is how I was able to add you both just now, without needing any more comments/posts.

            You should also be able to use Photon’s mod tools now, and you can find those settings at https://photon.lemmy.ca/c/onguardforthee/settings
