I had a look through the documentation but couldn’t find anything in this. Are there any moderation powers held by community owners? How extensive are they if they exist?
Not sure if this is all, but looking at the mod log that you can see on any community these seem to be the options:
Yeah, you can view reports, remove posts, etc.
So I think I just hadn’t had enough coffee when I asked this.
Most of the information is available in the docs. I think, right here: https://join-lemmy.org/docs/en/users/04-moderation.html
A pleasant surprise for me was that community moderation can occur over federation.
Complete control. They do as they wish. It’s my 3rd account after getting banned from 2 servers for absolutely nothing!
The question was about community owners, not instance admins

@maegul@lemmy.ml I am wondering if communities can be private / approved users only… I didn’t see that in the docs.
This section of the docs suggests that you can: https://join-lemmy.org/docs/en/users/06-other-features.html#lemmy-as-a-blog
@maegul@lemmy.ml Actually, that process that it doesn’t do what I want… The printing part is “… Everyone else can comment…”. Meaning is not a private community, just one with partially restricted access.
Yep, that makes sense.
I’m guessing you’d have to start your own instance then. Even so, I don’t know what would be necessary to keep it private. You’d have to turn federation off, for instance.
