I propose de-anonymising the moderators names in the mod log for transparency.

    This is irrelevant to whether we make a change, but I’m still curious: do any other major Lemmy instances do this? I checked a handful of the big ones and they all have mod names hidden in the modlogs.

      AFAIK, no. I think it’s important to note that it would provide a vector for bad actors to harass moderators. I agree with the spirit of transparency, but people need to understand that there will likely be undesirable consequences from making this information public.
