Request a Feddit.uk community

143 readers

If you see a need for a community on Feddit.uk then the best advice is to start it. If you need help, then post a message requesting volunteers to pitch in on the moderating. Don't worry too much though there's plenty of people around who can advise the important thing is to get the ball rolling.

However, if you think Feddit.uk needs a community but you aren't in a position to help it get started then this is the community for you. Start a new post with the idea and then, when someone starts it they can throw a link in.

Are you looking to moderate this and AuDHD? It's outside my wheelhouse and I've be looking to hand this over to someone more knowledgeable if I started them.

I have no idea how to do that

Oh and we're all just busking it at the moment, seeing what works, how it works, etc.

I mean I'm definitely open to it, I just don't know how. I even made a post on asklemmy this morning lol..no one responded yet

Simplest thing is to become a mod and poke around - you'll find the mod tools (and some will be similar to the ordinary ones just you can do them to other people's pages). However, if it'd be useful I can post a quick guide to the available tools - there aren't that many, so it will be a quick guide.

No worries.

There's not much to it at the moment - you can pin and edit posts, if there are issues with users you can always ask for advice over in Everything in Moderation. When we get fancier moderating tools, someone will also post over there. It should all be pretty intuitive and low hassle. If there is a lot of posts you can tag in other moderators to help, so it'll never be all on your shoulders (it's in the interest of the admins and the other moderators here that everything goes smoothly so there'll always be someone to lend a hand).
