FYI, this was considered fairly recently, and the end-result was:
I feel like this is an example of how the core dev team running on an instance that basically just has 3 of the admins do more or less all the moderation for the entire site is not ideal. This type of feature is probably one of the most-requested pain points for most people who run most servers, but my guess is that it’s basically completely invisible to the .ml team why it would even be needed, because their model works fine for them, so why would they.
Of course they’ve got a right to work or not work on whatever they want, but if their goal is success and good moderation for most servers this type of scalability and teamwork enabling thing is super important.
Sounds like they are more than happy to accept PRs though. They have their handfuls already so everything is going to get prioritized one way or another.
Yeah, probably. The other side of "this is so badly needed why haven't you done it for us" is "if this is so badly needed why haven't any of the server admins or mods implemented it yet."

I'm surprised that they decided to host DM's/etc. themselves, and not potentially integrate a protocol like Matrix.Org, XAMPP, etc.
Ik that Matrix allows user:
Clients
Bridges
Servers
Integrations
etc.
