Please check if the desired community name is available.

- Why am I banned from this specific community?

Lemmy offers transparency, and you can check the modlog of the community to understand the reason behind the ban. If you have further questions, feel free to send a private message to one of the moderators. If you have other issues, please email us at [email protected].

- Can this feature be added to the website?

If you would like to request a feature to be added to Lemmy, please contact the Lemmy developers on GitHub or reach out to the developer of your preferred (web) client. Instances like ours cannot directly add features to the website.

It seems like no matter how many times I set my language to English in my profile settings, I have to set my language to English when I submit any comment or post every time.

I don't know what happens when I just ignor that drop-down, but I'd like to avoid reinforcing the Americentric Internet issue where non-English speakers have to sort through a slew of posts they can't (or don't want to) read in English just because that's the default and nobody bothered to tag them.

Put differently, if say, a Spanish reader gets posts that are labeled Spanish as well as any post that are not labeled, there's a good chance the vast majority of posts are English, which is probably pretty annoying. I don't want to do that to people.

I believe one or more moderators of an instance are acting in bad faith. As I understand it, Lemmy does not have a modmail function to address the issue with the team, so I need to seek out the instance admin?

How do I:

1. Find out who that is

2. Contact them

I see no indication towards either on the community's side bar and I don't think there's a support@[instance] community.

Hey. I'm sorry but I accidentally removed myself from my moderator role in the my community again I created. Could you please give me back moderation rights for the community I set up?

![email protected]

The community seems to be unmoderated and I'm seeing reports from it as a result. My plan is to clean up the substack post and the ones from the banned users, and then pin a post linking to a few communities from here: https://lemmyverse.net/communities?query=europe

If possible, please add it to my LW account: https://lemmy.world/u/otter

I also don't mind if someone else takes care of the community or takes it in some other direction. If someone else would like the community, please feel free to give it to them. :)

The communities in question are !bulgariaeu and !sofia . The admin rarely shows up and I've been keeping them alive for years. I'm asking to be added as an admin along the founder, not replacing him.

The first one of these has a sentimental value, because it is the name of an important community on reddit that was dissolved.

The second one is for the capital of Bulgaria. Since, I've set up a dedicated Bulgarian instance and I've been avoiding to create a community on Sofia to avoid duplication.

As you could see from the votes, the Bulgarian community here is present, even if small and not very active in native language and on these topics. Yet, I firmly believe they are worth maintaining.

I am a mod of https://lemmy.world/c/[email protected] I need it unlocked so anyone can post. It is currently set for only mods to post. Others can only comment. Thank You

I'm requesting c/housemusic. Mod has gone and his last post was 3 years ago. I don't know why I didn't ask earlier, as I only post there lol.

this group has been dormant for a long time. I can revive it.

Hi there! I messaged the mod of [email protected] a while ago and never heard back. They have not posted anything on Lemmy in 3 years. I would love to take over the community and revive it. Thanks!

Also bounce opinions off of. How to correct something that seems lacking in a community, so that you could have another mod to discuss stuff? Or just bitch and moan about users and stuff without reprecussions? I think it would be a better and would make us more active in getting traffic.

When you have a minute can you transfer the community to [email protected] he should be the main moderator, I will be the secondary. Tagging him in this comment but we are already agreed on it.

Basically like asking Where did the N word become synonomis with black people and so forth? Or the R word to disabled people? I just wondering is it in the context of the sub and question without being hurtful or offending the majority can we use said words in a relative knowledge based approach to gain clarity on controversial subjects?

Is this the place to ask to take over an abandoned community?
