Hi! I’m your mod, SomeoneElse. There’s been a big influx of subscribers over the last week or two so I thought I’d say hello. I missed r/DontYouKnowWhoIAm after I left Reddit so created this community. So far I’ve been the main contributor, reposting the best of the Reddit sub to get things going. Anyone is welcome to contribute original or appropriated content from any source as long as it follows the guidelines (in the sidebar). Text post about personal experiences are also welcome.
I’m pleased to say there hasn’t been any real modding to do yet, which is a relief because I’m winging it! Everyone’s followed the rules and discussions have been largely respectful and interesting. Thank you to everyone who’s contributed. My hope for this community is that it continues with a Lemmy feel and doesn’t turn into a Reddit 2.0. To that end I just wanted to emphasise the two main rules; don’t be a dick to others, and no bigotry of any kind. Please report any comments/users that break those rules.
It’s likely that I’ll need help modding this community if it continues to grow at its current pace, so if you’re interested, drop me a message. Having previous moderator experience and living in a different time zone from me (Europe, BST) would be ideal but it’s not a must by any means.
I’m open to all suggestions on how this community is run including adding or refining community rules, and feedback on how hands on or off you’d like the moderating team to be. Feel free to message me or comment below.
It’s good to have you here 😊

For the sake of complete transparency, I’ve created an alt account on a different instance and made that account a moderator. The attacks on larger instances and the downtime that causes makes it hard to moderate this sub properly. I’m the same person: [email protected] and [email protected]
You’re doing good work, man. I miss a kot of subreddits but I’ll never go back purely on principle… and spite.
Thank you, I appreciate it!
