Well, it wasn’t meant nefariously, but if it gets this community active, I guess it was effective!

The SexOver30 subreddit was instrumental in getting my wife and me through a very tough time and reigniting a bedroom that had been dead for a long while. I am excited to contribute to building a community here in the same spirit to help others in similar ways. And there are still some lingering issues and other random questions that I could use some help and support through from time to time, as well.

Thanks for heading it up!

Thanks for the reply! I and my wife are two of those thousands who were helped by that subreddit over the years. I would love to help build a similar space here for those of us who have left Reddit completely behind. My intention was not to stage a coup or hostile takeover – I just wanted to see it turn into an active and positive community.

Except posting here is what admin has asked us to do in previous situations. PMing was literally discouraged. I did end up sending an email.

Edit: Sorry, I realize he directed people in that specific situation to !moderators@lemmy.world, but there have been multiple times in extremely similar situations over the past week when users have been told to post here. Both are modded by the lemmy.world admins, and I would think either is appropriate.

That’s why I posted here. I didn’t want to overstep by sending PMs.
