I was looking around, and realised we don’t have a single functioning equivalent to r/PhotoshopBattles. On a quick search:
- [email protected] - Completely empty and unmoderated
- [email protected] - Dormant for 2 years (with a mod who hasn’t posted or commented on lemmy in 2 years)
- [email protected] - Finnish instance, but the newest post is from 6 months ago
- [email protected] - Dormant for 2 years (mod dormant for 1 year)
We should revive the lemm.ee instance, but imo there is merit to starting afresh with a name that isn’t tied to a proprietary closed-source piece of software, like image edits or editbattles
If there’s anyone who’s interested, please take it up. I don’t mind being a mod, but I can’t be the main (let’s be real, sole) contributor right now. I’ve got my hands full with [email protected], and that’s just putting text on images, not even close to realistic edits like this demands.
We remove communities with dormant mods to prevent spam :)
So I made a backup community, [email protected] on your community, explicitly saying I would not do any posting or unlock unless the main [email protected] died. Is that getting killed unless the community receives posts? What about the @[email protected] (which is usually me manually operating, oops)?
Nah, we do a whole process where we write out to mods first to check before deleting - plus iirc you’ve put its a backup community in the sidebar. We’re not so big I don’t recognize the communities quite yet!
We wouldn’t delete any dormant account.
Whew, thank you. And you are absolutely right I am explicit about its backup status in the sidebar.
