Damn, I just created !askusa@discuss.online ~2 hours ago, already filled it with 3 posts just to get it off the ground, and there are already more than twice as many downvotes as upvotes. I knew it would be brutal - b/c "Lemmy", ofc - but yeesh! 😰

I do hope that someone wants to help mod, and/or create content b/c I'm definitely not wanting to do this alone!

You can open a post to ask for other mods. People will probably offer, as this fits a niche with strong demand

You can also try to reach out to mods of !nostupidquestions@lemmy.world

@PhilipTheBucket@ponder.cat would you like to help?

[–] PhilipTheBucket@ponder.cat 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Happy to. I'm not sure how much good I can do until 0.20 gets released and I can moderate things locally, but I'm happy to volunteer.

Discuss.online validates new accounts automatically without manual reviews if that can help

I would rather keep just the one account, though. I can barely remember to check rss.ponder.cat for reports more than once every few days. I think as long as the fix is coming, I'm content keeping the one account and waiting for the fix.

You might be waiting for probably around a year

It says the milestone is due January 31st.

https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/milestone/24

That's surely a goal as opposed to a promise, but I would assume that means it may be out early next year at least.

We'll see!
