Hey. Formerly-active mod from the Eugene subreddit, here. I took on this lemmy community in large part because Reddit made moderation from mobile phones damn near impossible. These days, literally my only activity on Reddit is to check the mod queue for the Eugene subreddit from time to time, if I happen to be on my computer.
I know the other mods face similar hardships. All moderation activity across the board on Reddit is down, and thus all enshittification is up.
Personally, I wish the Eugene folks would migrate here. It's weird to say this, but moderating communities here is actually easier, despite the fact that the mod tools are not as mature, because they don't try to railroad you into using a deeply awful app to do it.
You can blame the platform. Less moderation means more engagement.
I've been too active on the other place and I am setting up this aaccount to make myself more likely to look to lemmy first.
My username on the other place is similar enough that this monicker should be recognizable LOL.
