Wait, you mean the mod or the admin? The term "Admin" is used for system administrators of an instance. e.g. lemmy.world Admins are not necessarily mods of any communities, they own, upkeep, and administer the server. Mods are Moderators of a community and not often/necessarily Admins of the instance.

If Admin has disappeared/is inactive for too long the instance wont likely stay up long. If the said community is on your instance (so lemmy.world), the admins of lemmy.world are definitely active. They can transfer the moderation of the community in question to you.

Edit: don't worry, you are not disrespecting me in any way. Better to ask your questions and ask for clarification. I know fediverse is confusing and that's why I'm more than happy to help so please, don't worry.

Edit2: to clarify just incase: "Instance" is a lemmy server, so lemmy.world is an instance and happens to be your instance. My instance is "sopuli.xyz".

Rather than making a new community ask the admin of the instance the community is on that they transfer the community to you. There are more likely to be subscribers already and we can prevent fragmentation of communities

Yes this works on many instances. I believe some instances even have a dedicated community for this but I can't remember any right now.. I think if you search for "support" communities each instance pretty much has one and you can request to take over a community whos mod is inactive.

Agreed. I really like the default UI personally but I know it's not exactly the most new-user-friendly and modern. There is also tesseract: https://tesseract.dubvee.org/communities/lemmy.world

Same. I constantly see these posts complaining about their feed and am just wondering why don't you guys use /subscribed instead of /all.

Checkout https://lemmyverse.net/communities or something and tailor your feed. Don't browse /all the entire week.

A better way is to use !communitypromo@lemmy.ca or !newcommunities@lemmy.world if you don't want to browse /all.

Community promo has new posts for "old" communities that you might have missed every once in a while too.

Välinpitämättömyys taitaa olla juuri se isoin ongelma, mutta kun maailmassa on liikaa asioita mistä pitäisi välittää, valistaa ja tietää niin olen usein asioissa turvautunut lakisäätöön itsekkin.

Esim. Oletan marketissa olevien tuotteiden olevan EU:n direktiivien mukaisia, ettei minun tarvitse tietää aiheuttaako joku laite normaalissa käytössä tapaturman tai saanko liikaa haitallisia aineita jostain uudesta kahvipaketista kahviini. EU:n/suomen pitäisi vielä kiristää data-aikakauden lainsäädäntöä.

Blimey, that horse has already bolted :(

Oy! Mum's the word, old chap, don't go blabbing to the Yanks, or they'll be removing it faster than a Londoner can say "cheerio"!

Sorry

Hyvä kuulla, että vielä saa tollassia ostettua!

Itsellä ei ole telkkaria ollut vuosiin, mutta aina välillä katselen kaupassa noita ja vanhemmilla tuttavilla on usein ollut joku kallis älytelkkari ja sen enempää tietämättä kytkevät verkkoon kun se valittaa että ei voida tarkistaa päivityksiä yms.

Sulla on se etu, mitä monella ei ole: ymmärrät tekniikkaa. Monethan eivät edes vaihda reitittimen tehdassalasanoja tai ylipäätää koske asetuksiin laitteiden ostamisen jälkeen. Joillakin sattuu olemaan kaveri tai perheenjäsen, joka auttaa onneksi.

Pelkään tätä tosiaan..

En tiennytkään tuosta smarttubesta, kiitos vinkistä!

Ajattelin asentaa piHole:n vanhemmille ensikerralla kun olen käymässä, mutta täähän saattaa olla helpompi ratkaisu

Aika moni on jo hiljaa hyväksynyt uusien TV ostojen kanssa, että tuhansia eroja maksava tuote saa sisältää mainoksia.

Tosin eipä tuolla kaupassa taida olla mitään vaihtoehtoja älytelkkareille jos haluaa telkkarin.

Suomessa/EU:ssa pitäisi alkaa puuttumaan mainontaan tiukemmin.

I think some of the great ones people are mentioning here can be found on !bestoflemmy@lemmy.world

Edit: yeah there is an awesome index of the poop challenge + memes in this post: https://sopuli.xyz/post/915164

Edit 2: damnit the poop posts were deleted... But the memes are there

I'd answer you with a copypasta if I could just remember which one was the one with arch superiority but replace everything with mint :(

Great idea, hope we get community user tags in lemmy!

Yes Gowron! Finally!

It will be glorious! I have to give lemmy and Valve a lot of credit for this. Made the move half a year ago and honestly it has been such a fresh breath of (minty) air.

Just saw a big article on a major local news paper about support for Windows 10 ending soon and they mentioned linux mint as an alternative for most people who simply only use their browser on a PC since that is what a big portion of people actully do on a PC.

ah yes finally! can we start saying "I use Mint btw"?

Because I use Mint, btw.

Uh, may I introduce you to F-droid, the FOSS "appstore".

Edit: adding a link and also the community:
