Thanks again for the comprehensive write-up. Account recovery was my main concern, but I don’t know much about blockchain technology, so I didn’t say anything. I just remember that I registered with a video platform that’s blockchain based (forgot the name) and then, I accidentally discarded the password manager entry for it instead of saving the password. Password restore wasn’t possible, “because that’s how blockchains work”.

About the moderation and administration tooling that Lemmy has (or doesn’t have): I don’t think this project was ever meant to be as big and important as it is right now. I guess we can see a lot of changes soon. I personally can’t program in Rust, but I’m planning to start a small PHP project tomorrow for a small admin and mod web panel that directly interacts with the database to have a GUI for some tasks that requre fiddling with the database at this point in time.
