Yes. on lemmy.ml they have https://lemmy.ml/c/community_requests which you can access through lemmy.world by going to https://lemmy.world/c/[email protected]
That is only for communities on the lemmy.ml instance. Their moderators have no control over the communities on lemmy.world.
I suspect this would have to be done by the instance admins.
If the sole moderator hasn't posted or commented, you can still post and comment, can't you?
Yeah, but I'm worried about future moderation. For now it's fine, just wondering if that's even a feature or if that would possibly need to be newly coded into Lemmy.
If I was the instance admin, I would only consider putting you as a moderator after you had been active for long enough to show that you're already doing more work than the sleeper mod.
As for removing them, I probably wouldn't unless they had done something to show they weren't trustworthy.
But as it stands, we still need our communities to be built up and that will take effort from active participants.
Over the next few weeks Reddit users will be filtering in and out like a party and will be scanning the room, we need activity to already be here and that will have to come from us participating more than we normally would have on Reddit.
Earn a mod spot before you ask for it.
I think co-opting a "default" kind of name like football, and then doing nothing to build that community, would pretty well qualify as untrustworthy imo
They didn't ask for one, ramrod, slow your roll.
I'm not asking for it right now, I'm simply asking whether such a possibility even exists, which it sounds like there is. Your comment has nothing to do with this.
I think it's an admin thing. They'd have to remove the inactive mods and instate you.
