Devvit Apps for moderation

Inspired by the awesome r/modguide and this post, this is an (incomplete but extensive) overview of devvit apps for moderation sorted into categories. The overview of all published Devvit apps can be a bit overwhelming (but well worth your time to dig through it). So hopefully this can help to find that one app that is just the solution you were looking for. 

Devvit apps can be installed by a mod with full permissions (more info here). You can read more on the Reddit developers site and it has an overview of all published Devvit apps Currently apps are updated and published on Tuesdays. Besides apps for moderation, there are also apps for daily threads, community links, subreddit calenders,  community home, hub, cup games and even an app for users to ban themselves.

^(Please note, if the installation page of the app states " unlisted"  that means that the latest update isn't public yet. You can only install the most recent public version.)
