I’m the original mod and creator of this ‘sub lemmy’ https://lemmy.ca/c/leaf_nation. The other mod requested approval from Lemmy.ca admins to take over the account in the past. However, he hasn’t been active for at least 3 months in this instance, and he/she even added a bot to the account. I’m applying to have him removed as mod and additionally the bot. I’m here to stay. Would you please consent to this? Thank-you.
Request granted!
If anyone has any specific concerns about this that aren’t related to the users political views, please feel free to reach out.

Thank-you. I’d like to add, in no relation to this request, that at the end of the month, I’ll become a monthly donor to the server. The reason for my absence, since I joined 3 years ago, was simply me waiting to see what direction Reddit was taking philosophically in terms of their going public. I was hounded on that platform because of my political views (deleted my 13+ year account) and was hoping this instance would be different. So, thank-you for being reasonable.
FYI we’re not accepting donations yet, but it’s coming very soon! The balls are in motion to get that going, but probably not by the end of this month. Following for sure.

Hey Shadow: Is the mechanism for donations, now active?
Almost, we’re super close. Just waiting on one last approval, should be good to go in the next week or so.

OK I’ll check again at the end of June. Tanks.
User @marathon@lemmy.ca account is super sus- came across them earlier today posting pro-russian propaganda in a weird little “geopolitics” sub they created, and their recent post history reeks of karma farming. User creation date looks legit but perhaps it is a compromised account.
I don’t agree with them, but I don’t think lemmy.ca should be in the business of deciding who and who can contribute here based on their political views. Plus it’s an NHL community they’re requesting, not a political one.
If it looks like a legit user then whatever. I was commenting here because I saw this post while looking at their account, and it looked so odd to me I suspected it might be a compromised account.
