Seeking new mod(s) for this community (self.cybersecurity)

This community appears to have been abandoned by the current moderator. Neither account shows any activity for the past 6 months, nor has the user responded to DMs I sent via Lemmy and Matrix several weeks ago.

Would anyone like to step up and become the new moderator? We should have an active user in that role.

@[email protected] / @[email protected] I'm mentioning you here for transparency. If you ever come back to Lemmy you should have a notification directing you to this post.

What does one do as a mod?

Establish the community rules. Remove posts or comments that violate those rules or otherwise don't belong in the community. Change the community icon and banner if you like. You can also grant moderator status to other users. And you will see any reports that users create for posts and comments in this community.

This community seems pretty chill so there may not be much to do.

At this point, it’d probably be best to consolidate and redirect to a more active community.

e.g., [email protected]

I would like to moderate this community. I believe that cybersec community deserves a place in the fediverse and since this is the largest cybersec comm, it would be a good idea to keep it alive.

It's yours. Have fun! Feel free to unpin this "Seeking Mods" post whenever you like.

Thanks. Hope I'll be alright.
