Do you want to moderate asklemmy? (lemmy.ml)

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:

Have a history of contributions to this community
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 think time in the fediverse is needed. As an example, this account isnt very old but i had (an admittedly dormant) account for a year and have been on mastodon on various instances since 2019.

Edit: to be clear, i am not applying to the position

I'm interested! I keep finding myself here. I am admin for a small instance (wayfarershaven.eu) and am working on building up some communities. I'm enjoying Lemmy and the fediverse and want to help build that up as much as I can.

I am still pretty new here (my first account is just about two weeks) but I do work in support and believe in FOSS. At the end of the day, we're here to share knowledge, learn from each other, and have a good time. I'm happy to roll up my sleeves and facilitate that.

I'd love to!

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