This community was abandoned by the previous mods, we're in need of more mods and added content. I've been trying to keep it alive. If your interested comment below that your interested. Even if your not interested in a mod position, anybody is able to post "There was an attempt" content for the community to enjoy.

Keep in mind that as a moderator, it is up to us to make sure all posts follow the Lemmy.World’s rules, and the community rules.
