Just curious to know how many mods here are

  • A. still “here” and active
  • B. here but given up due to lack of momentum, interest
  • C. abandoned platform completely
  • D. just waiting for the 1 year mark and praying new users and posters will continue to come
  • E. other? (like only relying at alternative matrix chat)

I’ll be happy to see more than 10 responses from this dead community 😉

[Update 11/18]: glad to see comments, feedback, much more than I expected. Also see the modlog for actions taken. Just wanted to point out a couple of threads:

    Still here but nearly given up. I’m responsible for >75% of the content on the sub I mod, there seems to be very little interest or interaction otherwise and I get shot down every time I try and branch out.

      from a quick glance, your community seems to be doing well. Please don’t give up. Try cross posting to other communities also to get more visibility for your posts/comm

      I get shot down every time I try and branch out.

      Can you elaborate on this particular comment?

        I’m trying to keep it going but at times I’m the only one posting, or we get a flurry of Reddit reposts and then nothing again. Just feels a bit futile.

        With shot down, I mean I did try posting to other communities but there was either no interest, or people got a bit territorial. Had one fracas where someone followed me round reporting everything I posted so in the end I gave up.

          You are doing good with new attempts.

          Just Fyi that you might find useful too - see https://lemmynsfw.com/post/4557625.

          Crosspostings can be a hit or miss, just try to be very aware about the destination community’s unique rules. Afaik, most general communities will welcome relevant content if you are not over posting into it.

          Just an addition/caution to also be aware about LemmyNSFW instance-wide rule 2, when posting unidentified or unattributed models and content. Just please make sure to stay away from potential revenge porn or stuff where age verification can’t be provided - just don’t want you to get into hot water…

          (Rule Two) Respect and Consent: Treat all members with respect and obtain consent when sharing explicit content involving others. No doxxing.

      What do you mean shot down?

      But I don’t follow your sub because I only like OC and I don’t have preferences for particular nationalities/ethnicities (or even genders for that matter). I like everyone. So I wouldn’t follow “IndianGirls”. It’s too specific for me. Kudos for running it though for those who are into it! Just trying to say why I didn’t subscribe (I’m just new but anyway).

        That’s cool, we want people to follow what they like. I try and keep it fairly broad, see what catches people’s interest. Though the lack of other contributors means the community mainly reflects mine (or my mates) tastes. We do have one OC poster but she gets massively downvoted for some reason.
