Looks like the former mod of Linguistics made me mod even though I said no. I value this nature and science server so I'm looking for someone serious to take over.
that's a shitty thing to do.
you can add me, but I’ll moderate sparingly.
plus, i don't see much moderation needs accounting here.
@moderator@mander.xyz
I can help out.
many blessings
np. If you wanna stay on, that’d be great — many hands make for light work — but I get it if you don’t.
If folks want me to do an intro post, I can, otherwise I figure most people just wanna get on with posting.
I would help mod if wanted, im not on this instance tho
Thanks for @'ing me on this -- I didn't see the comment. Unfortunately, I have Bad News. Turns out that piefed has two levels of moderator: owner/co-owner, who can add other mods, and moderator, who cannot. Because c/linguistics is on lemmy, you can't grant me the owner status, since lemmy doesn't have tiers of moderators, which means I can't add more moderators. You can check out this issue to find out more, but I think probably the easiest thing to do is for you to add @supersquirrel@sopuli.xyz as a mod manually, and they should have the full permissions to manage the moderation team from there on out because they are also on a lemmy instance. It does mean that I don't have the ability to add or remove moderators from my other communities, though, so I guess I'll have to figure out what to do about that. If that's too much for you, lemme know and I'll contact the lemmy world admins and we'll figure something out.

Hey, sorry for the slow response. Feel free to appoint me as a mod until someone else wants to fully take over so that you don't feel pressured to hold that spot for longer
Good to hear from you. I've appointed and transferred ownership to you. All the best!
