What can be done now that this community's creator and mod has deleted their account?
Can you make me a mod?
Does that deleted account still have mod permissions if they re-register?
How does this work?

I know it's not what you specifically asked for, but my guess is that the original mod saw that /c/[email protected] was getting more traction and decided to bail out.

The funny thing is that https://lemmy.world/c/hockey has more subscribers, but I was the only person to add content.

@[email protected] Are there any answers to this?

[โ€“] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I bet you have to message the admin(s) of the instance and get them to make you a mod. That is just a guess tho. No clue about the rest...

[โ€“] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago

Yes, instance admins can appoint new mods.
