I was one of the many MANY victims of unjust banning, and I just want my niche communities here, all the weird expansion and transformation porn I like, DBD Shitposting, and The Sims 4 troublshooting… ahh…
Definitely. Lemmy is pretty collaborative in that regard. Most communities have lots of mods to help balance the workload. That being said, Lemmy is very much a “grassroots platform”. Everything we have here we build together. Not any one person is required to become involved in creating spaces here, but if there’s a space that doesn’t exist yet and you’d like it to then you’d have to start that ball rolling somewhere.
Do my method: Start it, invite others to mod. Let the passionate ones take over the ones you do not want to keep. Seed content as much or as little as you want. It is very, very passive work.
I settled over here when the API Desaster happend. I lost some communities, but I found new ones. Rarley, I have to engage with reddit for troubleshooting, but I treat it like any forum that I am not registered in, get my info and leave again.
You’ll settle in and you’ll find the places you like here. And then you can always try to start a community of your own and see if it sticks. Many don’t, but some do.
I came during the API debacle as well! It was easy to see enshitification in the proverbial tea leaves.
We really need to stop putting the “M.B.A. having” class of people in charge of things. They’re good at money, and that’s about it. Ask them why they do a thing and you’ll quick realize they’ve nurtured an idea of “fiduciary responsibility” where most people keep their moral compass.
Your average C suit will degrade themselves and everything around themselves until they’re no more than a walking billboard for socialism.
I was too, but it was Feb 12-13 I got banned, unjust one of my acc received a 3 day temp ban, but simultaneously it triggered reddit to ban 5 of my other accts site wide, but the ban message never indicated what was the actual violation but the generic" You violated several accounts policies" which made think it was entirely automated
Finally, Reddit can die

Cardinal rule of being a reddit refugee on lemmy: if you want a specific community from reddit that doesnt exist here already, start it.
A bit easier said than done: some don’t have the time and mental space to dedicate to moderate a community.

As soon as some activity starts, people who want to mod will show up.

I want my Fandoms and porn here. The niche stuff is the only reason why reddit has any appeal anymore.
