I would much rather someone else takes over moderation, yes. Both because of various federated moderation bugs in Lemmy making it hard to moderate a community that isn’t on your home instance and because I have way to many communities that I moderate already.
If needed, I would be willing to help with moderation, but not be the main moderator of such a new community.
So that means that ideally we should get new moderators for this community, who should then decide among the different options stated in the other [Meta] thread: https://slrpnk.net/post/10808865
Just as an observation, I'm not sure we'll get people. Good moderators are hard to find (I've been looking for some for [email protected] for a long time ), and this community will probably require more work to moderate as it will have a lot of news and political discussions. After all, there's a reason poVoq was the only mod here.
I would like to be able to help, but I don't see myself capable of moderating a community in English, that is if whoever accepts the position can count on my help, support and solidarity from now on.
