MODERATORS
This particular community was removed this morning.
I don't want to go into too many details, but suffice it to say that this is not the first time the responsible users (or, potentially, single user with multiple accounts) has tried to cause disruptions on lemm.ee, so this is why they have been banned from lemm.ee as well.
I know the community is still visible on sh.itjust.works. The reason for this is most likely technical - either the community removal action did not get received properly by that instance, or the fact that one of the mods was a user of that instance has prevented the removal from being acknowledged by sh.itjust.works. Either way, lemm.ee is not hosting this community anymore.
Is there a way to report communities such as this one? One commenter suggested via posts on the community would this be the best way? Is there even a need to report these communities?
You can reach out to admins directly if there is reason to believe that reports are being closed by mods before admins can see them
Thank you for handling this, it's vital to a growing platform!
Not just a new and growing platform -- constant gardening.
