To discuss how to grow and manage communities / magazines on Lemmy, Mbin, Piefed and Sublinks

founded 7 months ago
MODERATORS
 

The NFL season is about to start and it would be nice to have as many people as possible participating on the communities from https://nfl.community. Being a topic-specific instance with closed registrations, I'm aware that it is harder to be discovered, so I'm writing here with the intent of both promoting a bit and to find enthusiasts joining in.

If you'd like to help the instance and the team communities grow, there are two ways to help:

  • Join https://fediverser.network, find the Lemmy community you want to help and apply to become a Community Ambassador. Community Ambassadors can add different sources of content and also send invites to "good" reddit users to migrate.

  • Become a moderator of your team community. The communities are still all low in traffic, so I guess the hardest part for the moderators will be in finding and posting the type of content that you'd like to see in the community, in order to set out its tone.

As always, if you have any questions don't hesitate to ask!

Or various World News communities (some allow US posts, while others categorically don’t). Some only allow posts from certain sites, while others are more open. Some enforce specific post formats, while others don’t.

!globalnews@lemmy.zip doesn't have the media bias fact checker bot from !news@lemmy.world for instance

Edit: they removed the bot 3 hours ago

I include SpinScore link for my own post. Generally random ratings are useless without context, and they depend on human methodology which is potentially consciously biased and definitely unconsciously biased.
