Memes about the Fediverse.

Rules

General
  1. Be respectful
  2. Post on topic
  3. No bigotry or hate speech
  4. Memes should not be personal attacks towards other users
  5. We are not YPTB. If you have a problem with the way an instance or community is run, then take it up over at !yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com.
    • Addendum: Yes we know that you think ml/hexbear/grad are tankies and or .world are a bunch of liberals but it gets old quickly. Try and come up with new material.
  6. This is not the place to start flamewars between Lemmy, Mbin and Piefed.

Typical cycle

  • Look for a community about a topic that is not on LW (because being able to use a VPN is always nice)
  • Community exists but mod is missing
  • Post to community
  • Community start's getting traction
  • Open call to the community for mods
  • No one jumps in
  • Admins don't like unmoderated active communities, so they appoint me as mod
  • Posts about offering mods positions, still nobody wants them

Examples of communities at different stages of the cycle

If anyone is interested in becoming a mod in those, feel free to comment in them, !showsandmovies@lemm.ee has the relevant post pinned in the sidebar
