You can tell Elon is a genius because he gets people to pay to do prototype testing for him.
Don’t mod requests to abandoned communities go to !support@lemmy.world?
Otherwise, since it seems the only mod here is KarmaBot, assuming that is actually a bot, I don’t think anyone with the power to fix it would see this request.
Could one possibly be lavender? They’re actually quite closely related and the smells aren’t entirely different either.
