AvaddonLFC, who used to be the Captain of this ship and coordinator of moderators available to help you with your concerns is no longer able to be part of this community, as he is now an Administrator at Lemmy.world. I’m very happy for him and also happy to take on the job myself. I want to make this community a welcoming place full of both resources and helpful, kind people. I know it’s been slow here and you’ve mostly been on your own for a day or two.

I am not a mental health professional but I do have a new one starting as a moderator in the next few days and I have a few friends in the field. Going forward I will be pulling together some resources to add to a pinned post or the sidebar for everyone to use. If you have any suggestions for what to add, please drop them in the comments here. If you see any posts or comments that you feel are unhelpful or not okay, please report them so I will know I should take a look right away. I will be checking for rule-breaking posts regularly, and working with the mods on how to tighten up our rules to make sure they cover what they need to.
