Related: the mod of !movies@lemmy.world recently posted a request for an additional mod/poster. This is the sort of the thing that community “drivers” should do rather than just walking away, but I think sometimes they just walk away.
It would seem better to pass the torch than leave things in a state where nobody knows if you’re on vacation or dead or what. I hope he finds someone, the movie category seems like it could be a vibrant one.
I know there’s also a few of them. I have them grouped in a multi community to let me browse them all at once. That’s been a big help for dealing with fragmented fan bases.
