      Massive shout out to Lemmy in general. I’ve laughed a lot over the past week.

      And I wanna highlight @wjs018@ani.social for being a great moderator.

        Thanks for the shoutout! It’s been a long road to grow that community over the past year and change, but it’s users that care enough to offer constructive criticism that help a lot!

      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

          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.

      Same old, same old, for the most part.

      !spaceflight@sh.itjust.works, !spacex@sh.itjust.works, and !spaceflightmemes@sh.itjust.works are chugging along.

      Consolidation of EV communities to !electricvehicles@slrpnk.net seems to have been a success. Subscribers are still on the low end, but there are plenty of active users.

      !leaky_cauldron@diagonlemmy.social seems to be getting some traction as well, with a non-meme post from @the16bitgamer@programming.dev.

      I’ve slowed a bit with !nosafetysmokingfirst@sh.itjust.works, but still pleased with the growth so far.

        I didn’t know where else I could post it. The Harry Potter lemmies are a bit confusing to figure out what is safe to post where, especially with a community that has posts and engagement (even if it’s memes). So I would consider myself an outlier.

      Finally got the push I needed to finish working on a dedicated rules page for the wiki that I use for !anime@ani.social. The meta discussion around it was helpful in that I learned that I was perhaps a bit out of step with what users wanted.

      Also, I was doing some testing of my community on piefed and identified a couple bad bugs for some types of posts we use. The devs over there were very responsive and both of the bad bugs have since been patched (one, two), with a third, minor bug to be fixed at some point.
