Hello! We’ve reached 15k members (afaik we’re still the largest community on lemmy). It’s a lot for only a couple people, though there is admin support.

I’m looking for a couple people to join and help moderate. Ideally you:

  1. Have a history of contributions to this community
  2. Have been on lemmy for a reasonable* amount of time and do not plan to leave any time soon

*Genuinely not sure what constitutes reasonable, I suppose it will be case-by-case. It’s a little frightening to appoint someone who just came via the reddit migration, but I understand that 4/5 of this community are newish so it’s fine. The main hope is that you’ll stick around.

Ideally I’ll pick a few people out in the coming days. I’m also going to correspond with the admins before changes.

Thanks

I’m happy to help, I’ve been a reddit and FB mod for years and am doing my best to be active here.

I shortly chatted with u/Tmpod about it. I would like to help out with this community :)

I’m interested in the moderator bot. Have you made any progress on it?

I haven’t gotten around to working on it, /u/Tmpod said he was working on it as well. Figured I would wait instead. It would be really good to have it one to remind users of the rules about open-ended questions :)

I don’t really have any moderation experience but I would love to help. 😊

Even though this account is new because it was created a few days ago with the server I’ve set up (lemmy.cat), I’ve been on Lemmy for a while and have contributed to its development (documentation and translation).

I’d love to be able to help moderate one of the most important communities, not only in terms of the number of people, but also in terms of what it represents.
