The admins will probably reopen it and assign moderation to marketing people from one of the big commercial drone manufacturers. Get ready for a flood of giveaways and lots of ads masquerading as innocent fan posts.

News and Discussions about Reddit
Welcome to !reddit. This is a community for all news and discussions about Reddit.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules
Rule 1- No brigading.
**You may not encourage brigading any communities or subreddits in any way. **
YSKs are about self-improvement on how to do things.
Rule 2- No illegal or NSFW or gore content.
**No illegal or NSFW or gore content. **
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
:::spoiler Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

MODERATORS
Bruh.
Fuck.
That was one of the niche communities that had great info.
Damn. RIP.
Yeah admin will give the mod access to other people same like r/piracy
I guess there are ways to prevent such outcome by pre-selecting subscribers by level of technical knowledge on the subject.
An online test (chat like) is applied also by private torrent trackers to select uploaders also by tech knowledge of the subject before they are accepted. The same system can be extended.
Unfortunately, this is possible only where are many wanna-be subscribers to choose from the pool.
Someone should tell that moderator about Lemmy!
Sadly, I don't think theres enough Drone enthusiasts here 😓.
Niche communities would never kick off here.
Niche communities used to be all over the place on a bunch of sites and forums, and only kind of recently (last 10 years or so) converged on Reddit. The way "it's on another website" became enough to deter people from visiting makes it feel like we have collectively managed to forget that the internet isn't exclusively made out of the top 10 most visited sites... :(
Not with that attitude it won't 🤷

You can still give it a try!
Someone has to start it
You an FPV guy or a cinematic guy?
Non-fpv camera drones. I can't really handle the quick reaction needed for fpv. And also I don't really like to be in fpv.
I just explore places. Explore my neighborhood. Just observe as if I was a bird in the sky (I don't hover over people lol, I fly at least 60 meters / 200ft up and just chill and watch the roads and traffic). I sometimes go to a nearby park (that has no drone restrictions) and have a wide unobstructed line of sight, and I explore the park, just fly past people at the park and just watch their reactions (again, not directly over their heads), people seem intrigued. Basically just free roaming the skies, free as a bird (with a limited range due to battery limitations). Longest distance I got was 4000 meter and I barely made it back with less than 10% battery left. I once lost a drone because I forgot about the headwind on the way back. 🙃
I currently have an Autel Evo Nano+
Used to have Potensic Atom (not bad for an "off brand" drone btw)
Before that is just shitty toy-grade "Holystone" drones.
I despise DJI because of Geofencing.
But maybe the small community and fediverse would be a better fit for them. Not necessarily the drones.
