Lemmy Moderation Tools

Welcome

I'm working on a moderation tool to work with Lemmy.

I'm still in early development and discovery. This channel will update the status and respond to questions during development, testing, release, and post-release.

You are encouraged to create posts defining your needs. I also appreciate feedback on status updates. This helps me maintain the right track.

MODERATORS
 

Would you rather install a browser extension to expand moderation tools of Lemmy or have a dedicated website to do moderation in?

I've been reviewing the Reddit toolbox and believe I can create something similar to work with Lemmy using a mix of storage techniques.

The other option is to pull full posts, comments, and history into SocialCare and recreate the Lemmy UI with added features that are embedded into the pages naturally rather than through extension.

I've also uploaded the Icon of SocialCare.cloud to this post as a preview.

Completed tasks:

  • I have the Lemmy integration complete
  • I have the design and UI of the admin complete
  • I have job scheduling working & fetching data from instances

What's next:

  • Build the bot configuration
  • The first bot will be a post scheduler
  • Release previous features
  • The ability to create notes for users and communities
  • Release
  • Automod features
  • etc.

More updates to come. Please, let me know what you think!

I rather have it as a site which I could also selfhost.
It'd be easier to improve without relaying on having the browser open.
Also it'd be easier to make it work on mobile.

Some of the tools I use to build it cannot be distributed. I plan to get a SaaS solution out ASAP and then work on a distributed build separately and as an open-source project for self-hosting.

I'm calling it the reverse WordPress. They had FOSS first, then hosting. But due to time and need, I'm doing it in reverse.
