You may have read my previous post, announcing I would be trying to revive this community by posting regularly in it?

This morning I mentioned this project in another discussion on Lemmy and someone rightfully pointed to me I may want to be able to moderate said community and that probably I would need to create one from scratch.

I don’t want to make a new community if there is no need too, Lemmy is already short on participants without creating even more separated and smaller communities. I also don’t feel any personal urge to be an admin myself. But I also don’t want to encourage people to participate in a community that no one would be able to keep civil.

Before doing anything, I would like to hear your opinion and suggestions if you have any. What do you think I should do or, much better, what should we do?

And if the admin is reading this: what do you say about all of that?

While I wait for your comments, I will also ping the admins on my very own instance. We’re a French speaking one, so I want to ask them if that would be OK to host an English speaking community. Whatever happen next, I’ll let your know.

    Just technically speaking, for community moderating you do not need an account on the instance the community is hosted on, but some (instance) admins can request this.

      Great to know, thx!

      So we now have to wait and see if the admin, fingers crossed, or anyone else her has any suggestion on what we could do.
