I am signed in as an admin user of my instance. A different, non-admin user has created a community on my instance. I can’t edit this community’s details. If I create a post in this community, I can’t use the … menu to assign myself moderator of this community.

What do I need to do to give myself access to edit this community?

    I know, but I’m just trying to understand why you wouldn’t allow people on your instance to handle their own shit. What is the tidying/house keeping of someone else’s community? As an admin you can already delete/purge every post everywhere. I could remove/purge this post right now.

      I think you’re assuming a lot about what I’m doing here. In this case, I wanted to rename the community to move an emoji and make it more consistent with the other similar communities on our server.
