Is there a template for rules? Rules for rules? Is there a lot of spam and abuse requiring moderation?

Are most communities ghost towns? How do you grow? Can discussion threads be cross posted?

Thanks for any discussion!

    [email protected] has been good. I was sweating when lemmyshitpost was hit with CSAM, I really thought we would be next. Being the most active mod, I have to check right when I wake up due to time zones, and throughout the day. Most common issues are very mild, things like digital art being posted instead of a photo, or cosplay NSFW earlier in the growing process. The trump arrest pictures caused a stir, and the community ended up voting to prohibit political pictures. We rotate our banner image every Friday and pin the most upvoted original content picture for the next week from the previous week’s posts.

    Mod logs are public, go to a large community and view their mod log. You will be able to see how often and what actions have been taken. That should give you an idea of how much action a type of community requires.
