If you are interested, are a current mod of the QDL Subreddit, etc., then drop a comment to this post explaining why you believe that you would be a good fit for mod.

Thank you very much for the info.
@A_Very_Big_Fan@Lemmy.World
I’ve already told @Blaze@lemmy.dbzer0.com that this is not the issue, and I’ve demonstrated to him that he’s wrong.
Unfortunately, the federation issue isn’t that simple. If it were, I would’ve submitted another LBZ application a long time ago. I’m unclear what exactly causes the problem, or if it’s even one thing causing it…but what I do know is that even if you have a LBZ account, you won’t get a complete list of reports because some of them don’t federate properly.
SDF was the most reliable place to see a complete list, but they blocked LBZ and kbin today, so that really throws a wrench in things… Qaz was the one who figured all this out, so when it’s closer to morning time in his country I’ll have to shoot him a message and find out what the next best place is.
In the meantime, I have an alt on lemm.ee that seems to catch most of what my LW account misses (@A_Very_Big_Fan@lemm.ee). I can add it as a mod if you want.
Well…
Report federation used to work. I appointed several mods from other instances back then. The issue seemed to have appeared in May 2024 (https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/4701).
The issue has been closed last week (https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/4744), and the fix still has to be released.
The issue you linked applies to a version of Lemmy that neither LW or LBZ use. Or any instance, as far as I’m aware.
Again, looking at the modlog is all it takes to demonstrate that you’re mistaken. We are actively resolving reports on our remote accounts.
This other issue was also opened in May: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/4744
I don’t want to go through the update timelines of LW and LBZ, but on !support@lemmy.world, LW admins still state that

I had a look at the modlog, it works in this case indeed ( https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/modlog/2942?page=1&actionType=All&modId=115895 ). I am not saying it never works. I am saying that there are known cases where it does not, which is why the LW admins recommend people to use local accounts. Maybe in this case it’s because the report was from a LBJ account for a LBJ community?
I also posted about in 19 days ago on !fedigrow@lemm.ee: https://lemmy.world/post/24576402 . Other mods and admins reported other actions that would not federate. Nobody contradicted the fact that it could be working sometimes.
The consensus recommendation is just to use local accounts while we wait for the fix to be released. It’s just easier than to try to figure out what works and what does not, in which conditions, etc.
Maybe not currently, but that is what you have been saying.
No.
There are federation issues with reports, but it’s not as simple as you’ve been saying, and having a local account doesn’t solve it. There’s a reason Qaz has several alts modded at 196 outside of LBZ. He needs them because there are several reports that don’t federate with LBZ, LW, or lemm.ee.
I was curious so I had a look:
A mod (probably from lemm.ee, but not sure as you can’t see which mod this it without being a mod on the lemm.ee modlog) indeed removed it in lemm.ee if people look at the user modlog: https://lemm.ee/modlog?userId=126228
But the post is still up on LBZ: https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/post/21242663/12597647
And it doesn’t show up in the LBZ modlog:
It also doesn’t show up on the 196 community log on lemm.ee:
So mods who don’t have that specific set of alts don’t see all reports? That should probably be raised to all the mods of the platform, as your team seems to be the only one aware of that issue.
You are welcome. Thank you a lot for your posts on Reddit, I try to relay them on !fedibridge@lemmy.dbzer0.com, you definitely make a difference!
