I’m basically alone on 3d printing. It might be a good idea to recruit some help at some point, but I’m in a conundrum about what to do. I didn’t create the community, and I’m the 4th mod down. The other 3 are not active. I don’t want to discourage them, but I don’t want the community to get discouraged by inactive mods either. I try to check posts at least a few times a day, and I have no intention of leaving. I kinda bounce around in interests and am neck deep in AI stuff at the moment. It would be nice to know I have some good help and am not alone here. Do I just keep kicking the can and hope the other mods come back?
This is the aftermath of some Reddit refugees a few weeks back. Some mass-created communities only to log never back in again.
I will forward it to the admins and they will get in touch.
Sorry to hijack this post but I wanted to check for whether other people had the same issue first rather than immeditaly create a post myself only to be told that a solution already exists ^^°
I’m having a similar problem than the OP with a community I’m somewhat frequent in (c/totk / [email protected]). There is a single mod, who has created the community, posted a single comment on the same day, and then apparently left as there were no more interactions after that. At first I thought the mod might be just lurking instead of posting / commenting themselves, but now there are off-topic poststhat don’t get removed even after 3+ days and double digits of downvotes, the typos in the community name that were pointed out 2 days after it was created are still not fixed, and it also doesn’t look like the other community they created is moderated either.
Would it be okay to request this community, and if yes, is there an official method for that?
Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn’t work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: [email protected]
Whoops… force of habit.
