And that basically confirms that it's a remaining problem with admin accounts taking remote mod actions. l suppose in the mean time I'll try to have an admin at lemmy.ml give my @bilb@lemmy.ml account moderator status as a workaround. The other original moderator who could do it isn't very active.

I couldn't find an open bug ticket for this on Github, but that doesn't mean there isn't one. I'll take another look and report it if I still can't find anything.
