Only admins can kick people above a mod. I sit in fourth with 3 dead accounts on top of me. It is no big deal, but like, if I’m going to message a mod about something, I would probably just send the message to the top mod. In this case, that would be a dead end.
That’s not true. The owner of a community cannot be removed by other moderators, but the owner can remove all other moderators. Normal moderators cannot perform mod actions on each other.

Don’t worry about that, you are the only active moderator, kick the inactive ones out and post a message about looking for new people to support you.
I know that as a member I find it weird when a community is unmoderated, so you want to avoid that

Shouldn’t you have “remove as mod” when you click on the 3 buttons icon on one of the inactive mods?
I used it in the past between my alts, it works without need of an admin.
I am not sure what you mean with mods being on top of you. AFAIK, mods on Lemmy are equal, there is no such hierarchy.
