How do I contact the admin(s) of an instance? (lemmy.world)

I believe one or more moderators of an instance are acting in bad faith. As I understand it, Lemmy does not have a modmail function to address the issue with the team, so I need to seek out the instance admin?

How do I:

Find out who that is
Contact them

I see no indication towards either on the community's side bar and I don't think there's a support@[instance] community.

Think of each instance as their own website that shares posts. You wouldn't contact Bing because Google deprioritises your website.

There is no central Lemmy authority as that kinda goes against the idea of the fediverse decentralisation.

The best you can do is post about it on the various mod complaining communities.

Yeah, I totally get that. I don't think you're understanding my question.
