Mod privilege is being able to erase bigots with a click of a button

Also why good moderation is so important

I agree, moderation is important.

How do we keep moderators accountable, so the system continues to function? Is there someone checking them?

The mod log is entirely visible for anyone to view. Anyone can see who we ban and why, comments we remove and why. Posts have been made in the past about mod action that were effective.

One thing I don't understand yet is what kind of appeal system is intended on Lemmy if one doesn't want to resort to ban evasion.

Do DMs to instance admins still go through?
