I reported a reply in this forum but the processing moderator is the original poster

Hi, I reported a reply for being non-constructive, but the moderator processing my report is the same user as the poster of that reply. Is there anything I can do for a 3rd party mediation?

You received the best possible replies from Emmanuele. You also got linked the previous discussions on the topic, instead you kept being combatative. I also recommend you to use something else if you’re not happy how volunteer-based projects operate.

Btw, donations come with no strings attached. If they were, it would be called hiring.

I think you have a valid point in that reports should be moderated by people different than the message’s author, but that’s probably more of a platform design question for Discourse.

Either way, you can regard Victoria’s answers as an independent moderation.

In general this forum is rather technical, so answers might be very to the point, which can easily be read as dismissive.

Victoria, may I ask why you posted about that subject in an unrelated thread, as a moderator, while there are 2 other threads about that topic?

Peter, on Gnome docs, the suggested way of asking for features was to check for instructions on the docs of the relevant project, and the relevant project directed me to here. Where else can I request new features without getting dismissive answers?

I guess not, this is my only option.
