Mods can also appear inactive because they can be very busy in their daily life or be in hospital for a long period of time especially when it's a single mod and sometimes can appear inactive for that time
And I also have no idea how lemmys mod permissions work and some others might not have an idea how it works either and be reluctant to add mods that could do a hostile takeover
Thanks! If you wanna join the mod team I'll add you right away. Don't think it will require much right now but never hurts having other active lemmings' help!
You can pull that data from the API. Lemmyverse json file includes local subscribers so you don't even need to pull the data yourself.
Assuming my script isn't broken there are ~15 000 communities fitting the criteria. (The high number makes me question that though.)
E: I think I know what's going on. LW communities don't seem to have local subscribers provided and my script assumes that it means 0. Will get that fixed one day.
There are some rpg communities I'd love to see more activity but I haven't even been pushing as much as usual recently, let alone posting our moderating. Maybe one day.
It's a good idea to spread PSA's like this though so pretty people can.
