    Also, You can mention Grayjay by name here directly unlike YouTube where even as a moderator I can’t mention it.

        In general, Just be regularly a positive contributor in comments and if there are Livestreams also consistently be a positive regular there as well. Then when the creator needs new mods they might pick you since your a regular that is trusted.

        This also can be used actually for almost any community online as well.

            Yep! On YouTube beyond their trust and safety staff there’s also 2 categories of volunteer mods. One is more of a normal moderator role for the channel called “standard moderator” and the other one that I have “managing moderator” can moderate and set people as moderators or even an approved user.

            Here’s an article from YouTube on our moderation controls. https://support.google.com/youtube/answer

            The only thing is YouTubes tooling for community management has a lot of issues to put it nicely.
