Well feel free to apply if you’d like to help out. Right now the need for mods is significantly greater than the amount applying.

I’d agree with you but the mods of this community have shown considerably more professionalism and don’t have a history of abusing power. Which is more than I can say about mods in lemmy.world’s biggest communities.

I also trust them to moderate against bigotry and hate speech effectively. Which is important because 196 is supposed to be a queer friendly safe space.

Also how to easily make furry friends.

I don’t personally think so. They are getting priority, but I will still accept other people onto the team. The main reason I’m inviting them is because this community is intended as a complementary or sibling community to the main one ǃ196@lemmy.blahaj.zone which is more general, while this one is still general but centered around a specific topic/niche. I’m not too worried about interference, or them preventing us from even though we’ll have a shared team, since it is clear our communities are similar but still different. Plus simply by virtue of being on a different instance and being mostly furry related this place already has a different and unique identity than the original one.

furry_irl’s memes are specifically furry fandom targeted, whereas this 196 community accepts more general memes that are tangentially furry related, in additon to furry targeted memes like furry_irl’s.

Examples of that include:

• Memes featuring animal characters
• Memes featuring anime characterswith animal features
• Memes featuring animals in general

It’s similar to furry_irl but the topic is more broad.

Looks pretty real to me.
