It doesn't seem like it would necessarily fit either [email protected] or [email protected], and [email protected] I think may be more intended for Lemmy World community moderators.

Not that I'm aware of, just communities that seem like they might fit, but don't quite:

[email protected]
[email protected]
[email protected]
[email protected]

I'm sure you could make a more meta-type post in one of these though.

This sounds similar to [email protected], which was in the process of setting up :)

For kbin

Not that I'm aware of.

But what would such a group actually do?

Discuss moderation best practices I guess

That could be part of it, but I was thinking more in terms of sharing resources like what you linked in your other comment as well as other methods to encourage community activity.

Also technical stuff like what to be aware of regarding banner/image resolutions, language settings, handling community handoffs to other moderators, etc. Basically a mix of more specific Lemmy support and general community building/outreach discussion.

This is something that's also been in the back of my mind. It would be great to have some best practices listed somewhere, or just a general knowledge base

I wrote down some ideas and never got around to doing something about it

I just assumed critical conversations like this were done in an obscure discord were all the information is locked away and difficult to search.

-_-

Sorry, I temporarily forgot I was on the cool part of the internet
