This is inspired by [this advice](https://mander.xyz/comment/10625495 ) from a few months ago:

> Stop giving shitty mods a free pass. Honest mistakes happen; but if the mod in question is assumptive, disingenuous, trigger-happy, or eager to enable certain shitty types of user, > **spread the word**> about their comm being poorly moderated. And don’t interact directly with the comm. I think that at least here in the Fediverse we should demand higher standards from our mods.

(Emphasis mine.)
In the past I have used places like [!lemmyshitpost@lemmy.world](https://lemmy.world/c/lemmyshitpost ) or [!196@lemmy.blahaj.zone](https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/c/196 ) to call out mods on other subs, with mid-to-almost-high degrees of success, but I wonder if it would be better to have a dedicated sublemmy?
Here are my thoughts on what would make this effective:
<li>probably shouldn’t be hosted on .world due to the breadth of possible conflicts of interest with admins</li>
<li>probably shouldn’t be hosted on .ml due to federation hurdles</li>
<li>mods of the community shouldn’t moderate any other communities of any significant size, in order to make the whole “accountability” thing work</li>
<li>mods should be willing and able to deal with substantial quantities of garbage posts because there would be a lot of “why won’t c/xyz let me be transphobic/say slurs 😡😡” type submissions which, left unaddressed, would outflood genuine criticism</li>
This is still in conceptual form so I am interested what others think :)
