MODERATORS
As I said elsewhere, there's a reason Ask and Casual communities both exist.
A list of questions that could be asked on AskUSA but would still be completely legal
None of those questions would cross any rules, but they would make the community look serious and depressing, but also would allow people to talk about those serious matters.
From what you are saying, you should probably handle a more laid-back CasualUSA community, similar to !casualconversation@lemm.ee , !yurop@lemm.ee , !casualuk@feddit.uk
You can probably open a post to call moderators to take over AskUSA, and open CasualUSA in parallel
The odd part is that I am not subscribed to any such community myself - not even the various Shower Thoughts ones:-). Occasionally I will run into such a post on All or such, and if there is a need then I am willing to help with something but the communities I tend to frequent on my own initiative are like !Fediverse@lemmy.world, !fedimemes@feddit.uk, !tenforward@lemmy.world, and the Fediverse "drama" communities.
So, are you OK to open !casualUSA, and try to find some help for !askUSA? :-)

I'll wait to hear the answer before making casualUSA, in case nobody is willing to do the more serious one.
Thank you for the post!
Thank you for walking me through all of this. And now I see the appoint moderator button, on people's accounts, so I should be ready to implement it when it happens:-).
Nice!
