Community and moderator requests and nominations for unmodded communities.

No bulk requests. That means one comm request per post. This is so we can sort out their interest individually.

Community request posts with enough upbears and a volunteer for moderation willing to submit an application will be created during mod drives.

I want a space that's made just for posts from leftist tiktoks, or videos that fit the rough format and time length of these.

I might be willing to mod it and throw a video at it once a day or so. It's not like this content will literally ever dry up.

Mainly I want to find more things to follow that might not necessarily be recommended to me by the algo but might be recommend to someone else by their algo and I think that necessarily needs a space that's NOT tiktok to find that in.

Also tiktok comments kinda suck and directing more hexbears into them might be good.

There's nothing wrong with doing that but a dedicated space prompts people for specific content types and is more likely to actually get people posting them simply by existing.

Consider for example that there's nothing stopping people posting the content that used to belong in Dunk_Tank into ChapoTrapHouse or whatever. But people don't want to do that. They want a dedicated space for it. Existence of dedicated spaces simply encourages much more of the content to exist.
