Well, I was saying you don’t have to be a mod. If we look at examples beyond “alt” communities, !superbowl@lemmy.world 's main poster isn’t a mod. Likewise, !bmoviebonanza@lemmy.world 's most frequent poster isn’t a mod either.
It doesn’t have to be hard work. Just pick a couple communities and start engaging at the level you’re comfortable with.
I don’t want to have to deal with the mod stuff, exactly like OP said. I’m just here to promote owls, conservation, and wildlife rehab. I do have a great mod that lets me do pretty much anything I want and will do stickies and banner changes and such for me, and I just keep giving good content.
I’ve noticed it goes in phases:
!gothindustrial@lemmy.world is currently in phase 3 but it was in phases 1 and 2 for a while. !cyberpunk@lemmy.zip is bouncing between phases 1 and 2. !thrashmetal@lemmy.world is in phase 3. Punk is interesting bc it has both !punk_rock@lemmy.ca and !punk@lemmy.world. Ideally they’d join forces on !punk_rock@lemmy.ca and then they’d be in phase 2 or 3. !metal@lemmy.world is pretty much at phase 4, tho it’s sometimes lacking in discussions.
Anyway, I recommend picking one of those communities and posting/discussing, you don’t have to be a mod to help grow them.
Yep, the mod has to do a lot of work at the start which is hard.
