I noticed that "Ask Lemmy" only has 4 moderators.

That's a single mod per 12k~ subscribers.

Or a single mod per 250~ users daily.

@14specks hasn't made a post and comment in 2 years.

@tmpod@lemmy.pt hasn't in 4 months.

@Cloak in a year.

@mekhos in 3 years.

Hey, haven't used this account in a while, figured I got demodded, but if there's a need I can fire it back up. I think the instance admins have things under control in general.

I feel like the instance mods don't get everything-

Though I do browse the community often and would love to help, but I don't know if you're capable of making that decision, or if anyone else is or willing.

Your wording implies you have other accounts?

[–] 14specks@lemmy.ml 12 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Yeah this isn't my main account

How can you afford two Lemmy accounts?

[–] BlueEther@no.lastname.nz 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I must be well off, or exceedingly poor with 4 accounts across 3 instances

It helps to put in some extra shifts at the posting mines

[–] doomsdayrs@lemmy.ml -2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Why?

[–] 14specks@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 day ago

I didn't want a mod tag next to all of my posts, and Lemmy doesn't let you disable it.
