minus-squarepossiblylinux127@beehaw.orglinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up22·2 years agoLemmy is growing but we need to work to make easy to allow reddit mods to setup instances and fund them
minus-squareDymonika@beehaw.orglinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up11·edit-22 years agoI am a Reddit mod. Gimme the step-by-step tutorial!
minus-squareSaik0@lemmy.saik0.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up11·edit-22 years agoBe mildly competent at computers… or know someone who is and willing to help you. Either setup your own instance, or find an instance that’s already setup that you like and the owner will let you add stuff to the database… Start a community… Read here… https://github.com/rileynull/RedditLemmyImporter Success! now you’ve migrated your subreddit to lemmy! (This is a little sarcastic. I’m not good at legit guides. But it is possible!) Edit: tweaked phrasing… doing this to general public servers would be unlikely.
minus-squareTeaHands@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up8·2 years agoMaybe pick an existing one and help it get off the ground: !lifeprotips@lemmy.world (direct link) this one seems like it’s newly set up by a community squatter, but you might have luck approaching them !lifeprotips@lemmy.ml (direct link) - this one is older but was inactive for a long time before the recent migration so idk if the mod is active
minus-squareShinhoshi@infosec.publinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·2 years agoIf you’re interested, I’d recommend posting in the older one, then requesting it on !community_requests@lemmy.ml
minus-squarejherazob@beehaw.orglinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·2 years agoWell, on Beehaw you cannot create new communities, but you certainly can be made a mod of one even from another instance. Find the ones you want and ask the current mods of it.
minus-squareDymonika@beehaw.orglinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·edit-22 years agoWhy can’t we create communities on here? Do the Beehaw admins specifically restrict this? Thanks, by the way.
minus-squareSilviecat44@vlemmy.netlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up8·2 years agoI haven’t found many moderator features on Lemmy so far. The community that I created does not seem to have any way of blocking posts.
