Developers do not look for reports on social media, so they will not see it and all it does is clutter up the feed.
I think for now the userbase is too small and this would be unnecessary or even undesirable. As it is, there aren't all that many comments on posts in this community. Down the road it certainly wouldn't be a bad idea though, especially for the packages that people who don't use the DE may use.
It's small enough that we actually don't get many things to moderate either. I don't think I've even done any mod action so far. :D
My opinion is that this instance is too small for it to be worth it. We already have other communities and they are very inactive. The Krita and LabPlot communities barely see any activity and they're some of KDE's biggest applications. The KDE Edu and Akademy communities are even deader. Even by combining everything else into one community this instance isn't exactly busting with activity, so best not divide things further. It's already seeing fierce competition from the more official KDE Discuss (and the Krita Discuss) and the more popular KDE subreddit (and the Kdenlive and Krita subreddits).
I asked about kdenlive already. Every community needs moderators and here it seems they need to be KDE contributors

Those don't really seem like related skillsets. Community managers aren't usually asset contributors.
Yeah, it'd be great to have developers participating in discussions on here, but I don't think most would have either the skillset or desire to moderate a community. Obviously there would be some exceptions there, but I can't see a reason as to why it would be mandatory.
Otherwise we may end up like GrapheneOS ;D a community moderated by stressed out devs with bad people skills
When your too busy moderating the community to contribute to kde, so you lose your moderator status. You're also too busy contributing to kde to moderate the community.
It would make more sense to change that to "Community managers are managed by contributors". Less effort for them and potentially better moderation.
So I guess we now have 2 voluntary kdenlive moderators? (Me and you)
It might be good to post about those topics in this main instance, even if those communities were made (cross posting to both). Otherwise people may not see the posts
