MODERATORS
The problem was that mod was doing it on lemmy.world, which was the default instance for a lot of users.
It isn't as valuable to do here as someone can create a new sub on a different instance, but it was still annoying.
Can moderators of a sub ban people from the instance or is there just an overlap between moderators of that sub and moderators of the instance?
My understanding is that sub moderators are technically different positions from instance admins, but I would expect some collaboration.
However, I don't think there is a way to ban a person from an instance yet. I'm not sure, though.
