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?

[-] Emperor@feddit.uk 5 points 2 months ago

Might as well be lemm.ee.

[-] Blaze@feddit.org 4 points 2 months ago

Actually I just remember lemmy.zip could be nice too

@BrikoX@lemmy.zip would you like to mod too?

[-] BrikoX@lemmy.zip 4 points 2 months ago

Thanks for asking, but memes are not my thing. Though, I can add a mention to the community in !fediverse@lemmy.zip sidebar.

[-] Blaze@feddit.org 4 points 2 months ago

Alright, we'll keep you posted

[-] db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 months ago

I'm all about the memes, so feel free to use dbzer0

[-] Blaze@feddit.org 0 points 2 months ago

Thanks for offering! Do you know mods on your instance who would be interested in modding this community with us?

[-] db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 months ago

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.
