Looking for Mods/Community Suggestions (fanaticus.social)

If you have been following my daily Kickoff Countdown threads, you will know that we are just over a month out from our first college football game of the 2023 season. We are quickly approaching 200 local subscribers (officially the second largest community on fanaticus.social) and it would be great to have a couple more mods here to help me out when the season starts.

If you are a current/past mod of r/cfb or if you are just willing to help me out with this community, please let me know. I am wanting to update the banner/logo before the season, so if you have some graphic design skills or ideas on what we can do please comment below!

I don’t know how much of r/cfb we want to bring over to Lemmy, i.e. user polls/banner updates/etc, but please feel free to tell us how you would like to see this community run for this upcoming season. We don’t have any set rules beyond the Fanaticus instance rules but we may want to start thinking about some before the season kicks off.

We should be able to get some game day bots running, but I don’t know if it is feasible at the moment to do every game for all 120+ FBS teams every week. We will have to share server resources with NFL and MLB game bots unless someone is willing to self-host their team’s game bot.

I look forward to hearing from any and all of you! Hopefully we can make this community a worthy r/cfb replacement!

I need flairs so I can easily identify who to be a dickhead to.

Thanks for getting this all set up. I’m hoping we can have some fun together this fall.

I’m with you! I need to know who to downvote regardless of what they’re saying and whether or not I agree with it.

In case anyone is unaware, this is not a feature supported by Lemmy but there appears to be a GitHub request entered for this to be added.

https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/1456

From one of the Lemmy developers on Jan 22:

I dont have any strong opinion on this. But it seems like a relatively complex feature, so it would be a good idea to write a proposal document first, before starting to implement it. Basically describing how it should work, how flairs get configured and chosen by users, also how they are federated.

In fact I think a process for "Lemmy Enhancement Proposals" could generally be useful for implementation of new major features. It would allow more people to participate in the design of new features, not only programmers. And it would help to clarify up front how certain aspects could be handled (eg moderation, federation). Finally the actual implementation work would be much easier if there is already a document telling how exactly it should work.

My proposal documentation:

If (Florida || NotreDame) {ban}

I don’t actually know how to code so that might be gibberish.
