This user did hours over a day of violent and transphobic hate speech and was not banned due to absentee admins. And when admins finally take action it’s for “userbase request”?

Uhhhhh? Am I missing something? SDF admins don’t seem to be willing to operate a community as a community of 4k users.

No hate to the admins if they are underpaid or whatever. SDF just needs to appoint reachable and bare minimally invested admins, and if they can’t maybe shouldn’t be running a Lemmy instance; it’s not really a “set it and forget it” deal.

    We spammed all communication channels to wake the admin up. Just a bit ago, the troll activated again with and the admin was ontop of it within the hour

      I’m glad they are at least reachable again. I hope they can at least find a handful of admin volunteers to cover user safety concerns across time zones. That should absolutely be possible out of 4,000 users but definitely needs to be done.

      Honestly makes me proud of my instance which has 500 users but 4 admins, all of whom respond often within the hour!
