I’m new to Lemmy and trying to learn how everything works. Also yeah I made everyone on r/madlads and r/politicalhumor a mod via the Mod Democracy Bot.
Came here to say this as well. As funny as this would be if it were an accident, just prior to me going scorched earth on my accounts I saw several subreddits in protest that made everyone subscribed to their sub a mod, and confirmed it myself.
It’s very likely a subreddit that the person was subbed to and forgot/didn’t know they were doing that.
On r/politicalhumor and r/madlads, the answer is yes. But you need subreddit karma to log mod actions. There is a bot running in those subs which facilitates it.
Wish they had gone through with it. The app is just a front-end that sends requests to the server, presumably the server is where authentication happens (otherwise everyone could just pull up dev tools on their desktop and become insta-mods of any sub with a few tweaks). That being said, if it was a server-side bug, then they have a big problem; otherwise it’s just little more than a graphical error.
