When a mod wishes to add a new mod to their community, they first have to search for a post / comment that the person that they wish to add made in the community.
My suggestion is, instead, consider potentially offering community mods the ability to search for the user, and then add them, without requiring any posts/comments in the community.
a la how reddit handles it.
You must log in or register to comment.
I believe this is coming in the next release (v1.0.0)
You can check it out at https://voyager.lemmy.ml/

As workaround there is an alternative front-end that allows for this.
Yes, the API allows it, and sometimes I use curl to call it.
