DIY Redditors: Please read this post. We need your help.
Hello to all of our DIYers! We, the mods, hope this finds you well and that you’ve begun to notice some of the changes we’ve brought to the subreddit so far. The new mods have been pivotal in helping us better understand what you, as subscribers, want from the sub (because that’s where we recruited from!). Which bring us to the point of this post. We need your help. This subreddit has 26 million subscribers and right now we have the most active mods we’ve had in years, which is 7. For perspective the next highest subreddit has 19, and the one above that has 24. We need more mods and we would prefer they be actively involved in the DIY subreddit. That doesn’t mean you have to be chronically online. It doesn’t mean you have to participate in shaping the policy about where the sub goes (if you don’t want to), we just need people to understand what posts are allowed, what aren’t, and to approve / disapprove posts. That’s it. If you really want to contribute you can respond to modmail and flagged posts. Any amount you can do per week will help us and the more people who are willing, the less we all have to do. We need to do it ourselves, because I’m afraid reddit has been very clear, they just don’t have the budget to hire mods for us (hardy har har). We appreciate anyone who’s willing to put in a bit of time every week or every few days to help us out. Please respond in this thread or leave a message in modmail if you’re interested and keep up the great projects. Cheers. (If you're a powermod or a mod of a bunch of other subs that are quite large and don't actively participate in DIY I'm afraid we must decline. Thank you.) submitted by /u/FirstForFun44 [link] [comments]
