MODERATORS
 

I want to be part of the solution of the problems I see on Lemmy, that is why I opened my alt account at my current server to open new communities while fixing their issues.

I had been informed by the server admin that I should not post more than 5 posts in any local community which is guaranteed to kill my communities on my current server.

I am explaining the backstory here for people to understand my logic for my question.

So, I really appreciate any help here. If anyone can give me good servers to open my communities in.

My current communities:

  • News: to lower the load on Lemmy. World server and to improve the Fediverse health.
  • Europe: due to less than optimal moderation actions as documented in "power trippin " community.
  • Misinformation/ Disinformation: Because there is no community to post research and news about this topic.

Thank you all for your help. I really would appreciate any lead here.

I don’t dislike the Adam’s Family nor the Munsters, but I have blocked both communities because they each had a ton of submissions on the same day, and they were dominating my feed.

I love eevee and its eeveeloutions, but the eevee community is spammy AF. I unsubscribed after a couple days. I am getting close to blocking it altogether.

I mod the women's hockey community on OP's instance, and post the results of all games (this past season there were only 6 teams so not a lot), but if there are two games in a day I try and put at least 6 hours between the posts so not to spam.

I suppose it depends on the purpose of the community. Narrowly defined communities like eeveelutions or The Addams Family don't really justify a glut of content in an hour.

OP seems to run a news community though, which is probably where they ran into a brick wall with the 5 post limit. There's a lot of news. And I guess you're not a very useful news community if you miss a lot of it.

First time I hear about Eevee community. Is it !Eevee@pawb.social ?

Yes. And looking at the feed, there are 11 posts all at the same hour mark, then it will go a day or so with nothing then another dozen posts at once.
