As a mere user I have no idea what should be reported to whom. It needs to be really obvious and I’d like to see predefined categories as options, e.g. “breaks community rules” (ideally with options to select which rule was broken), “spam”, “illegal content” (remembering that what’s illegal in one place may not be illegal in others).
For reporting to admins, which admins get the report? If I’m on instance A reading a community hosted on instance B and report a comment from a user on instance C, who gets the report? It’d be really nice to see a list of those when selecting a report type, e.g. “this report will be sent to the moderators of lemmy@lemmy.ml” or “this report will be sent to the administrators of lemm.ee, lemmy.ml and startrek.website”.
Hard disagree. As one of the people whose personal details and payment information were leaked by Patreon a few years ago I would rather nothing in the fediverse had anything to do with that company.
