I'm looking for a hand to build out this community and raise awareness. The r/Edmonton mods on Reddit are not interested in supporting this community nor did they shut down during the Reddit Blackout, so it looks like we're on our own.

I'd love to see a thriving community full of interactions, events, stories, and updates. News articles, festivals, and even garage sales would be great!

I don't want to be a mod but I am here to do my best to participate. :) Thanks for the hard work.

No worries! It's pretty low impact at the moment. Not too many people posting about stuff that has to be removed. Truthfully, I'm hoping to make this more of a community space without a ton of restrictions. r/Edmonton got a bit weird and cliquey on Reddit and I'm hoping we can do it differently here.

If you ever change your mind and want limitless power as a Lemmy mod, let me know!

Really? I got out when spez had his initial tantrum. Never went back to check. Glad I found this place.

I am as well. Between this and the occasional check-in on Mastodon, I've got plenty of social media to keep me entertained during some idle times. That's all I really ever wanted.
