Oh. Whoa. I stumbled on a post of theirs asking to take over as a moderator of some community. I thought it was a bit weird and looked at their account and saw it wasn't even a day old. So I commented on that post saying that. But now I see this user is clearly a problem.

MODERATORS

They can have that one.
If you look at the communities themselves, it seems like they're trying to become mods of most religions, many political beliefs, and concepts related to India.
They're also asking to become mods of already existing coms. I'm really not sure what they're up to.
Edit: Even more interesting, it seems like there's been common requests for religious and Indian communities on [email protected] over the past 2 months. I'm not sure what to make of that either.
Honestly I wish lemmy would make it so that you could only moderate 2-3 communities maximum. Would prevent a lot of the power mod bs that reddit had
It would just encourage people to create sock puppet moderators.
Same problems as without those rules, just harder to spot.

Listen, I'm trying not to ascribe intent to their actions. But yeah, possibly.
