An list of potential memes: https://feddit.org/post/2379333/1722394
A meme posted to !fediverselore@lemmy.ca : https://feddit.org/post/2421485
@Emperor@feddit.uk already expressed interest.
For me, there are a few pros and cons.
Pros:
- Memes are an easy way to convey a message
- Fediverse-specific content is always nice
Cons
- Memes communities tend to be very popular
- Due to the topic of the community, there might be some heated debates and discussions in the comments (the example above with the vegan cat food is a good example). That might be quite time-consuming to follow and moderate
Based on this, I think we would need probably at least 5 mods to make sure the community stays sufficiently moderated.
Are any of you interested?
By the way, which instance would you like to host it on?
Might as well be lemm.ee.
Actually I just remember lemmy.zip could be nice too
@BrikoX@lemmy.zip would you like to mod too?
Thanks for asking, but memes are not my thing. Though, I can add a mention to the community in !fediverse@lemmy.zip sidebar.
Alright, we’ll keep you posted
I’m all about the memes, so feel free to use dbzer0
Thanks for offering! Do you know mods on your instance who would be interested in modding this community with us?
Ah no I don’t have anyone specific in mind. But they don’t have to be from my instance anyway. Personally I find that at the start of a comm, there’s not much moderation needed anyway
Also bear in mind that Admins also get reports and can step in to help out - dbzero has half a dozen.
