    I’ve already created around 6 communities and mod an extra two across this account and my alts so I kind of have my hands full here

    Also if I had the energy to make and run a community I think one I’d love on lemmy is probably c/fivethirtyeight or c/guerrillagardening so I’d probably prioritise one of those.

      And there’s a risk of a community like that blowing up overnight when you’ve already got a bunch of mod duties and you’re the only mod in the new community.

      As I have discovered.

      Accepting applications, by the way.

          Thanks. Let’s hope it doesn’t keep me as busy as it has. The fact that I’ve had to add a ‘no racism’ rule already…

            Hopefully you can find a couple people to fill in the mod team.

            If my experience on lemmy is worth anything, pretty much any community where the majority of posts are in picture formats, and where the content is accessible/understable to most, usually grows pretty quick.
