I have mixed feelings on mod logs personally. They’re great when the mods aren’t trustworthy and nothing is controversial. But I think they leave mod teams vulnerable to coordinated attack, which absolutely will happen if lemmy gets big enough. The mod logs played a (small) role in my decision not to take on mod roles or start communities here.
Mod mail on the other hand is a great tool for communication with basically no downsides
Wait, there’s no mod mail‽ That’s a really important feature for people trying to mod well
There is the mod log at least. Getting banned on reddit was such a black box of pain. I wonder why I kept sticking my hand in it so often.
