Probably a silly question, but I'm far from being an expert at moderating: may I ask how you manage multiple accounts? You need to log in and log out every time you want to step in your mod uniform?

The trick is to use one account per instance. For example, I have

feddit.org, this account, to discuss meta things about the Fediverse
sopuli.xyz for interest discussions (!movies@lemm.ee, !showsandmovies@lemm.ee, etc.)
lemm.ee is the account is use to mod most of the communities

I just have the three tabs open in the browser, and switch from one to another. It would be better to have multicommunities, but that's still ongoing

Thx a lot! That's an excellent idea. Maybe I will do exactly that as, quite frankly, I'm not at all happy to see that capital 'M' next to my name whenever I post something. I would prefer to be a 'simple' user like any other community member.

Feel free! As you are a French speaker, you can consider using https://lemmy.ca/ and https://sh.itjust.works/, those are canadian instances.

And !journaling@sh.itjust.works is already on SJW, so if you get a SJW account, you can appoint that account as the mod, and you'll get the reports there too!

Done. I will keep the old Mod account as Mod for a few days, just in case, but it will be 'downgraded' to a preferred normal user status asap ;)

Thx again for the suggestion.
