A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I'm probably going to delete my account or at least cut back drastically on my usage, but I'm currently the only active mod for a small fan sub for an old fantasy book series. I don't really want to leave that sub unmoderated but I'll have to find another user willing to take on mod duties before I feel alright abandoning Reddit altogether.
That attachment is what they (Reddit) are counting on. It's your community, not Reddits; and they don't care. But you do... while admirable in itself, its being used against you.
I don't disagree with you, but I still feel a certain responsibility to that community. I'd like to start divesting myself of that responsibility, but it'll take time if I don't want to just abandon it.
From what I understand of how this whole system works here - you can just host/create your own instance for that community. Make some mod post on your subreddit about how you're migrating the community, if anyone can help host it if you're unable, and if they want to follow over they can.
Yeah it's an idea for sure. I responded to @curiosityLynx a minute ago that I'm really burnt out on that particular series so I think it's probably time for me to find somebody else to take it on and just move on myself.
