[Meta] Does anyone want to mod this community? I discussed with the admin, as the mod hasn't been active since 10 months they assume the community is up for adoption (lemmy.zip)

More people than I expected volunteered, which is nice to see. Since I ended up creating an account, I'll leave it here anyway.

I volunteered because I worried for the community. There were few comments and I couldn't sit by when it seemed so straightforward to step up for the sake of something I care about.

Later, admins shared that they'd been taking care of it (things were never as dire as I feared), and they've since appointed actual moderators. Even one with actual experience, too! I trust things will be fine, now.

All this to say: I'll be here as an option, should you want more people, but I'm happy with how things turned out. Much better than the communities that (sadly) spend months looking for volunteers.
