Definitely. Lemmy is pretty collaborative in that regard. Most communities have lots of mods to help balance the workload. That being said, Lemmy is very much a “grassroots platform”. Everything we have here we build together. Not any one person is required to become involved in creating spaces here, but if there’s a space that doesn’t exist yet and you’d like it to then you’d have to start that ball rolling somewhere.
A bit easier said than done: some don’t have the time and mental space to dedicate to moderate a community.
As soon as some activity starts, people who want to mod will show up.
Do my method: Start it, invite others to mod. Let the passionate ones take over the ones you do not want to keep. It is very, very passive work.
