Sorry if this is a dumb question. I’m unsure what the procedure is.

      No worries! it’s confusing, I know.

      Now, if you can tell the community name we can help you more.

      Or if you prefer not to say then you need to figure out the community’s instance it is on, so the server name that comes after the AT sign [email protected] and contact the Admins of that instance.

      If the community is in your instance (so lemmy.world) it’s tad bit easier: go to [email protected] and make a post about volunteering to take over a community.

      Good luck and don’t hesitate to msg me or ask me here for help!

        The community is [email protected]. The only mod or admin hasn’t been active for almost 2 years. I quite like lemmy and I plan on sticking around. I think I could resurect the dead community. I may contact support and volunteer. Thank you!

          That plan sounds good and it should be absolutely no problem to transfer the moderation to you since it is on your instance and the mod has been inactive that long! Indeed go to the support community I mentioned and earlier and ask :)

          No problem at all and good luck! Glad to have you in lemmy :)

          PS. If you take over the community and want it to grow, here are some communities to get help with growing it: [email protected] and [email protected]
