I lack the time to learn Lemmy tools and run this place and fx0mt left for whatever unfortunate reason. Let me know and I'll briefly review your account history (you don't have to have nodded anywhere before, but you must already have a decent history and not simply be new to Lemmy). Thank you.

Me. I want to be a mod so I can go on power trips and mute people I disagree with and live out my fascist fantasies online from the comfort of my cum crusted chair.

I can start immediately.

Okay, this is absolutely bizarre; I can't see any other comments here (literally shows 0 comments). Does it have something to do with being outside the community's instance? Could someone maybe get in touch with lemmy.world's admins about this?

Test

Update: Great, it worked!

I wouldn't mind helping out.

No real reason to want to other than somebody needs to do it.

I got a psych degree if that matters, but most of moderation is just keeping things civil, you don't need to be a SME or need to know how to use "tools".

This person has posted in our community a few times and I can vouch that they appear to have the maturity to be a decent mod for a place like this.
