Took me a while and an AskLemmy post to figure this out, since I initially thought Lemmy was auto-modding commenters (which kinda made me panic), but this is what I see:

I am the only mod in this community, and others aren’t seeing this flag everywhere, so commenters aren’t actually modded.

Is this a bug with Voyager or with my instance?

    It’s not going to change, sorry. This is the way Apollo has done it and I really enjoy its UX. For new Voyager mods, I recommend giving it time to get used to it.

      That’s cool, and I was amongst the biggest Apollo fangirls on the planet, but just because Apollo jumped off a cliff doesn’t mean you have to.

      This particular bit of design is not ideal.

      I’ve been designing UIs on iOS, Mac, and Windows for decades, and this is confusing.

      e: especially for newish users, who we’re trying to attract to Lemmy, right?

        New Lemmy users aren’t mods usually, so they won’t see this UI element. In any case though, I like this UI 😉
