As a side note, there are still issues with federations of reports, so there would need to be at least one mod with a programming.dev account in the meantime, and hopefully the other mods will be able to see the reports "soon"

Oh bummer, forgot about that. Assuming it needn't be my only/main account, I could create a p.dev one, if it helps.

That would be great! Feel free to comment here with it once it is created!

More people than I expected volunteered, which is nice to see. Since I ended up creating an account, I'll leave it here anyway.

I volunteered because I worried for the community. There were few comments and I couldn't sit by when it seemed so straightforward to step up for the sake of something I care about.

Later, admins shared that they'd been taking care of it (things were never as dire as I feared), and they've since appointed actual moderators. Even one with actual experience, too! I trust things will be fine, now.

All this to say: I'll be here as an option, should you want more people, but I'm happy with how things turned out. Much better than the communities that (sadly) spend months looking for volunteers.
