I started to see a good amount of posts that is posted in the wrong communities and kept, it’s like anyone can take any statement and post it in any community, because why not?

I would not be surprised currently if I had seen a apple posted in the bananas community.

Did moderators here give up or what is happening?

    Mods have a finite amount of time.

    There are two things that you can do:

    • If a post violates community rules, you can report it, which will help bring it to their attention more-quickly.

    • You could volunteer to moderate a community that you feel is undermoderated, which will help decrease the load on the existing moderators.

      I report some posts and they never get a mod action.

      Would you trust a 1 week account to moderate any community? Simply that is not something feasible for me.

    I mean, if no one is reporting it, they likely aren’t sitting around checking posts every 15 min. Ones that stay up may just be missed; they aren’t notified about any posts through Lemmy simply by being a mod, so unless they see the post themselves, it may just get missed. I missed a post on a sub I mod for 2 weeks; not that it didn’t fit the community, it just didn’t come up in the feed and I don’t always go manually check the sub feed.

    Not that deep or dire
