@comcreator@lemmy.world has created 80+ communities here, most of which are empty save for a “Looking for moderators” post. Some have 0-3 posts which are nearly all from the creator and a couple have some regular user activity.

I recognize that this may not be against the rules as long as it’s not simply for the purpose of squatting on a name but is worth observing for future developments. It does not appear that this user intends to actively moderate since they’re looking to hand those communities off as soon as they’re created.

    There a reason limiting the number of communities one can create and moderate is a good thing.

    For communities, that’s 15 to 30, and especially for popular ones (ranging from >50,000 subscribers, depending on the instance), 5

    For moderating other communities that OP did not create, preferably 5 to 15.

    That also means: no more powermods.

      Would that really stop it though? Anyone motivated enough would use multiple accounts.

      I can’t imagine moderating more than 3-4 popular communities, or 6-10 lower activity niche ones. That’s assuming I had a ton of free time to do so too!
