I’ve noticed a few communities where the mods haven’t ever contributed to the community (and its dead), or / and haven’t even posted anything to lemmy in years.

Just a FYI, you can ask Lemmy World admins to takeover ownership of communities community and actively moderate it, to help revive it

It seems there were a few people who simply grabbed the community names when Lemmy grew, and had to plans to contribute to them.

Some of the communities that were affected , I’ve seen have a lot of potential (like some of the larger linux distros).

    Yeah. Thats fair enough. I still need to run a windows VM for work, but, I adapted our tools to work in linux.

    In practice, if it weren’t for the push to Linux by Steam, it would be a hard sell for most people. I only play shonky games though, so its great for me (and I’m moving to steamOS based hardware, away from PS5/Xbox)
