I know a lot of lurkers like me out there are browsing, but there’s quite a bit of engagement capitol on the federated instances. If you find an interesting topic and the right community, you get a lot of feedback. There’s not much hate being thrown out there either.
Go for it man! I had never moderated over on Reddit but I wanted to contribute on Lemmy so I started up some communities. Everyone has behaved themselves so far and people have been pretty positive about things. Eventually it might get overwhelming (if Lemmy really takes off), but there’s always the option of adding more mods to help.
I just made one: !downtherabbithole@lemmy.world more than happy for moderators to join me! I’ll sort the sidebar etc tomorrow.
Joined, thanks!!
Nice
