To those genuinely interested in moderating
@Ernest has pushed an update which allows users to request ownership/moderation of abandoned magazines. Ghost/abandoned magazines were fairly prevalent after the initial wave of hype due to users either squatting magazine names or becoming inactive for other reasons. Now is your chance to get involved, if you were waiting to do so.
To request ownership/moderator privileges, scroll down to where it says "MODERATORS" in the sidebar. There will be an icon of a hand pointing upwards that you can click on, then make the request. Cheers, and thank you for your hard work Ernest, as well as future mods.

Hello, does anyone know if it's possible to moderate a magazine hosted on kbin with a lemmy account? I've been taking care of a magazine hosted here for months and the owner is MIA as far as I can tell (I tried messaging them to no avail), but the adoption feature mentioned here doesn't appear for me from the lemmy side. Given how lemmy and kbin are compatible-yet-different, I'd understand if the moderation features can't cross over, but for now I just don't know so here I am =) Thanks for reading!
@LeGaosaure I don't think that we have cross-platform moderation yet but I'm pretty sure I saw @ernest say it will come.
In the meantime, you could always create a backup account over here and request ownership that way.
Thank you for your answer! I suppose I'll do that, then. So far the magazine has honestly not really needed moderation, but it's always better to have someone ready before problems happen =')
@LeGaosaure definitely, and that way you can create guidelines for posting. My tiny community worldwithoutus has barely needed any moderation so far!
In this specific case the community owner posted good guidelines before disappearing so we have that at least, but I'd appreciate being able to change the pinned message for example (current one is outdated), and the other community I adopted got a totally random troll post once so I now consider that these can pop absolutely anywhere at any time =')
@LeGaosaure good luck with it. Is it LimbusCompany? I don't actually know what that is, but I've subscribed so I can upvote you.
It is! Thank you very much 🧡 (Limbus Company is a turned-based strategy game with a heavy emphasis on story, and the less gacha-esque gacha to ever exist x') )
