Hi Lemmy! I’ve just uploaded a new version, and this is the changelog:

  • Community moderation tools: Lock comments, feature posts in community, ban users, remove posts/comments, appoint as mod. All this tools are available when visiting a thread.
  • View and resolve post/comment reports. There is a new moderation section available in the main menu (hamburger menu). It will show the new unresolved reports count.
  • Show if an user is mod, admin or bot (A, M and Bot) next to username.
  • Highlight moderator distinguished comments
  • Show community moderators in community sidebar
  • Set the default feed on app start from settings (Settings-General)
  • View cross-posts of a post. While visiting a post, tap the 🔀 icon to view a list of cross-posts
  • Cross-post a post to a different community (Post menu, Share, Cross-post)
  • Show new comments counter since last visit

    Moderation tools should already set this app apart from the others, and the other features are a nice bonus.

    Trying it out now, thank you!

    Have the moderation tools been tested for admin level moderation, or should I tread carefully on that side of things?

      Not sure if they work for admins, it hasn’t been tested or implemented

        Good to know thank you! I’d imagine admin level functions are a whole other challenge for devs making fediverse apps.

        I tried out this version and this is what I’m seeing for admin stuff:

        • On the desktop UI, Lemmy combines community mod reports and admin level reports into one feed. On Boost, I can see all the reports the same way, and so it’s consistent with the desktop interface. I’ll need to wait for more reports to come in to properly test it.

        • On desktop, admins can take mod actions on all posts. On Boost, I only see the button in posts from communities I moderate. I prefer this over how it works on desktop, since I think admins should limit their interventions to the communities they moderate (unless there is a serious problem).

        So as it is, Boost might already have the right level of support for admins. I can see reports, but I can’t accidentally cause larger issues. Important admin actions are more rare, and they should probably be done through the official desktop UI
