I mean have you seen the state of the world; currently it’s rampant with capitalism, explotation of women, degradation of LGBTQTIA+ rights, blatant nazism and extreemists, ecoterrorism and climate change denialism, shinkflation, etc
I mean it’s really hard to have hope with the top constantly kicking people down and everyone just trying not to drown just to live an above average life
unless you’re born with a silver spoon or got the right connections, things are looking mighty tough to say the least
as one of the instance mod/admin’s I’d say that evidence would help expedite the report process but it’s totally optional
depending on what the thing being reported is sometimes evidence isn’t needed
for anything that’s blatantly negative/unpleasant, evidence isn’t typically needed when reporting a post/comment
for anything else that someone might find subtly “off”, 2 pieces of evidence could help us figure out what’s wrong
as a systems analyst having as much information to determine what happened and how things got to this way can help others and myself determine what the best way forward could be
for example some users might just need a warning/clarification based on my own interactions
