MODERATORS

If you create a sub on Lemmy, are you responsible for its moderation? If so, how much of a pain is that, really? (lemmy.ml)

The title, really.

On Reddit, I was one of the ubiquitous lurkers. I'd like to maybe participate a little more on Lemmy, now that I'm here. I might even like to start a community, but I'm concerned about what kind of a commitment I might be getting myself into. I really have quite enough BS in my life without inviting more.

I'd be grateful for any advice, experience, or warnings folks might have. Thanks, and have a good one!

Edit: Thanks everyone for your responses! Maybe I will try my hand at a community or two!

At the moment almost zero. If it gets very active and you want to enforce rules like no reposting or something like that it could be a tiny bit. Mean users etc will also be managed by the server.
