Ah, so @unionagainstdhmo@aussie.zone has done it, have they?

Yeah, we had a good chat a few weeks ago about some stuff, u/bandhmo wasn’t happy with some interactions that had occurred in some chats, not on Aussie Zone.

U/bandhmo did say they might come back one day, but felt they needed some rest/distance.

Its a shame, i actually found we had a lot to talk about. I’s hoping after a somewhat busy period i’m going through in my personal life, we’d be able to reconnect and push forward a few ideas we’ve had for Aussie Zone.

That chat is also where u/bandhmo asked me to become a mod for aussie-enviro. I’s happy to jump in, and i hope people are happy so far with how that whole thing is going. :)

This leads me to a concern I have, and u/bandhmo shares around the communities that i’d like to share. For some communities there are only a few people posting, to the point where it becomes more like a quasi-blog than a community.

So the question we have is, how to build a little more action in some of these communities to create a more sustainable, and fun environment?

U/bandhmo had the idea we could create a Community Leader type role in communities. I don’t know from the admin side what this might entail.

From what i understood, these people wouldn’t act as moderators, but be involved in supporting ongoing posts, in-community events, and along with the mods design the direction of the community they’re involved with.

I’d love to get peoples thoughts on this, and maybe start taking steps towards a vision like this?

To u/bandhmo if you’re reading. Have a break, but come back one day. I know i’ll miss ya! :)
