Hi, it seems like I just got designated additional moderator for this community. This happend without any further communication with mod or anyone, so I'm pretty suprised.

I need to sort out if this was by accident, how it came to be, and where to move from here on.

Come abroad this journey and stay tuned 😂

Hi guys,

let me be upfront and blunt, just so this issue gets addressed early on.

There are two communities on two differnt servers. feddit.org/c/BuyFromEU and feddit.uk/c/buyeuropean. They significantly differ in daily traffic/contributers and amount of moderators.

One user of feddit.uk is quite vocal about his community being the real deal and puts a lot of effort in onboarding redditors in his community.

Acknowledging the viewpoint and reason ( META Discussion ), I don't like how he is kind of overstepping placing his solution in any context, like it is the only real deal.

His arguments might be valid in some points, but the style is really poor.

Nonetheless, unmoderated communities without traction fade out by themselves and don't need artificial accelration.

To be honest it is upto @[email protected] what to do with this community and to see if he wants to step up and put more moderators in place, or not.

I would prefer to have both communities to evolve in whatever directory they are heading, without interfering.

In the end informed people can subscribe to both and decide for themselves where they want to contribute.

Edit: one user, not moderator.

Having two similar communities on the same topic splits conversations, and give posters decision fatigue

Edit: some topics have consolidated their communities to avoid that, example from a few months ago: https://lemm.ee/post/46935805

Edit2: the UK community has a lot of different mod. The .org community only has one, who hasn't been active since 8 days.
