In a browser, visit a Lemmy instance's main page. The admins are listed in the sidebar. Note their usernames.

Still in a browser, go to your home instance and login. Hit the search magnifying glass in the top right corner, and do a user search for whichever admin you want to message. You may have to type in their whole ID in the form @exampleuser@instancename. When their name comes up in the search results, click on it and you should see a "Send Message" button as part of their profile.

That account has been busy, too. 1 week old and has created 99 threads, mostly political rage bait.

It's a way to make a self-closing gate that uses gravity rather than a spring. Those two pivot points are each offset horizontally from the upper hinge.
