Since making the announcement last night to become community driven, The Agora has quickly become an active place full of discussions, proposals and voting. In order to keep things going I’m looking for volunteers to help facilitate the conversations and apply the rules that have been determine by this community.

As a mod of The Agora you should be active on our main matrix channel and willing to help facilitate conversations between other mods and users.

As a mod:

  • you will still retain your right to vote just like anyone else.
  • may be dismissed by the community if its felt you are abusing your powers or pushing your own agenda.
  • will help maintain order.
  • follow the rules of the community.

Not sure you want to help mod this community but would like to nominate someone else? go ahead and nominate someone.

    I would mod, my comment history speaks for itself.

    From the sidebar:

    Here, you are encouraged to speak your mind, share your insights, and engage in stimulating discussions. This is your opportunity to shape and influence our collective journey, just like the free citizens of Athens who gathered at the Agora to make significant decisions that impacted their society.

    You’re not alone in your quest for knowledge and understanding. In this community, you’ll find support from like-minded individuals who, like you, are eager to explore new perspectives, challenge their preconceptions, and grow intellectually.

    Remember, every voice matters and your contribution can make a difference. We believe that through open dialogue, mutual respect, and a shared commitment to discovery, we can foster a community that embodies the democratic spirit of the Agora in our modern world.

    The instance, and social media as a whole, would benefit from a common square where people can have discussions in a civilized manner. I think this is a cause that’s worth donating time towards supporting and I would be willing to do so.

    I also work in tech, computer security specifically. I know python and I work with Linux professionally and recreationally. I’m not volunteering to be a programmer but I can write scripts if needed.
