I feel like Fediverse users are nicer to each other and more generous with upvotes than reddit.
(self.showerthoughts)
A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The most popular seem to be lighthearted, clever little truths, hidden in daily life.
Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts: 1
If you made it this far, showerthoughts is accepting new mods. This community is generally tame so its not a lot of work, but having a few more mods would help reports get addressed a little sooner.
Whats it like to be a mod? Reports just show up as messages in your Lemmy inbox, and if a different mod has already addressed the report the message goes away and you never worry about it.
One thing that has concerned me a little is Reddit moderators that want to own the same community here on Lemmy, like genuinely feeling that it’s theirs.
In generalI I thought that was something I wanted to get away from, but I guess I also don’t know what it takes to “grow” a community into something through moderation.
