Yeah. In the explanation they say that four people are taking the load of moderation, that can't scale. If the rest of the communities keep growing they may end up isolating themselves for not being able to adapt.
yea, four people is not enough for even the smallest community.
Glancing at my one-member Poetry community here:
C'mon, you what'll you do if you get out of hand, need at least 7 to handle that
Poetry people are honestly pretty aggressive about their shit, so
I honestly think it's somewhat irresponsible to have allowed themselves to grow as they did with only four moderators. Other instances have closed registration to maintain healthy growth. That should've happened long before this point.
Exactly. Moderation abilities are just as important as hardware requirements.
They also spend more time chatting on discord rather than modding lol
