Greetings,

The primary moderator of this community is inactive, leaving the community in an unmoderated state for over a month.

As a result, we are soliciting applications for new moderator volunteers. Based on the number of reports we see, the workload is fairly light and shouldn’t take more than 5-10 minutes per day.

Applicants must be regular posters or commenters in the community, have an account at least one month old, and be in good standing in the community (i.e. no bans).

For those interested, please nominate yourself by posting a comment below about why you would like to be a moderator for the community. If you support or oppose the user in question, please add a child comment with a +1 or a -1 and the reason why you do/do not support them as a community moderator. We’ll pick from the top-ranked users in the comments after about 48 hours.

Regards, SourCreamAndGarlic on behalf of the Lemmy.ca Admin Team

    I suppose I should probably throw my hat in the ring, but I will admit I have absolutely no mod experience. I’ve found it pretty easy to be active in this community and have been interested in putting together some weekly stickied threads (e.g. freetalk friday, mentalhealth monday, etc).

    Sure, I’ll volunteer, though I don’t know if one can mod cross-federation?

    In any event, I admin an instance, https://lib.lgbt, so I feel like I have some pretty good moderation and admin experience. Also some Discords and stuff like that.

    I like the idea of men’s liberation and think a community dedicated to that pretty cool. I think it’s important to moderate it properly because, as I’ve said in other threads here, men’s liberation can sometimes entail a negation of femininity or embracing toxic masculinity. It’s important to keep the community away from that and I feel I’d help in that regard.

    Please note that even if you have no moderation experience, we can run you through the basics of how to moderate a community on Lemmy. Don’t let a lack of experience stop you from applying!
