    I suck at it. Just created AMA Requests for people to request other people to do an ask me anything post. I have no clue how to mod or anything or promote it. And I cannot find a book or website on how to do it.

      Hey there! First of all, there’s no book or anything that I know of. Second, the way you refer to your community is like this: !amarequests@lemmy.world. Quick question: are you planning to run the AMAs yourself?

        Well I have been asking other users and hate to message the ADMINs. But currently yes. I just searched for my comunity and it did not show up. I thought it was a really cool thing we could bring or steal from Reddit and ask like um nurses, doctors, web developers, mods, admins a bunch of different questions because I do not think I am the only one migrating over here that liked the casualama or the just AMA. But on my community all are welcome. But I will try my best to do the best for the users. I posted in new commonites looking for help or for people post or know how to promote. I am not asking to spam it but just get the ball rolling and get other people with knowledge that other people are curious about just to ask a question without fear of being downvoted or whatever.

          Well to begin with, I suggest adding a description of your community somewhere in that community, so people know what it’s about and what to expect of it. if only so visitors know whether they should subscribe or not.

          I don’t think people mind that you ask for help. Here on !fedigrow@lemm.ee is a great place to ask. You may also want to try !asklemmy@lemmy.world. Just make a post telling people what you have in mind and asking for help or guidance. Ideally you’d also find someone to work along with you. I’d help you myself but I don’t know anything about AMAs and my time’s full up.
