Mod has abandoned community. What now?
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 can appoint a new mod. Interested?
Yes
Congratulations! 🎉
You're the mod now, dawg.
Alright
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?
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...
Yes, instance admins can appoint new mods.
I don't think this is the post you were trying to reply to
I am confused how that happened. Thanks for pointing it out.
Lemmy is a bit glitchy. Like how the upvote counts go crazy.
