Having migrated here from reddit I thought about bringing life to a Greek community here in lemmy.ml.

Unfortunately, there is a single moderator that has already taken /c/greece, /c/greek and other similar once but have since been flagged as banned.

I would like to take over /c/greece and move it forward, instead of leaving it to rot in limbo as the moderator cannot be interacted with.

Here is a post of mine inside the community to help @dessalines@lemmy.ml with the process.

    That would be great. I hope it gets done.

      Unfortunately this is the 2nd time I am posting this request in here, after making sure to delete the old one to avoid spamming, but this community needs to be revived. Unfortunately I haven’t had any response so far, possibly due to the huge influx of users in the instance, but I can’t help but notice other requests that were posted after mine and have been resolved.

      I tried creating a new /c/greece in another instance but they way federation and indexing works, it will be invisible to most users. This user explained how searching for communities works and it looks like there is a slight barrier to entry currently.

        It takes time sometimes.

        Many people have started migrating here from Reddit so maybe they’re also busy with that? New registrations and whatnot.

        Maybe the other posts were easier to deal with? Give them 24h and if nothing happens, then let’s insist!

          Yeah that’s what I’ve done already. My previous request was up for 2 days, some posts that were posted after mine, got answered but since mine went unnoticed, I delete my old one and reposted it in hopes of getting a resolution.

            I see. This sucks. Should I make a post as well? Would that help?

              Νο. The only reason a post needs to be there is because the mod actions are only visible to an admin/moderator by clicking the 3 dots on a user(to open options) and they need the user that wants to get it, to have a post there, so that the admin can give them permission(s).
