Hello World,

Due to our pace of growth, our platform ended up with thousands of communities created by you, our dear users. While we are still appreciative of every community effort, we decided we need to be able to better assist and publicize them. To assist with this effort, we now have two community team positions available:

  • The Community Engagement Team: This team will work with community moderators and find ways to increase their engagement, provide them with easy access to logo and banner options, and communicate with you better to assure transparency as needed. Team capacity: 6 new members expected
  • The Community Management Team: This team will be responsible of making sure communities have active moderators, assuring compliance in Lemmy.World communities, and keeping track of community moderation logs in order to assure they are moderated in good health. Team capacity: 6 new members expected

Both of these teams will be working closely with the admin team, and are expected to become ways for our users to have enhanced control of their instance. Let's build something great together!

I usually tell reporters to down-vote and scroll. Not clear how downvote effects lists but I only remove obvious spam or off topic. Created a few communities when this place was a ghost-town and 2 days later the reddit hordes arrived. smh. No way I'm screening every post now. up/down votes should count for something. Currently if someone reports a post, I check up/down votes to see what community thinks. Maybe give an option to sort by up votes. Or maybe there is already a way. Volunteer mods only have to ask and have a profile history. I'm old and don't need this shit.
