Helping Beehaw (lemmy.antemeridiem.xyz)

So how can one help beehaw lighten the load? So the fediverse doesn't break before the real alternative for reddit is fragmented in 1000s of bubbles.

@Stijn I'm not too familiar with the whole magazines/community situation but I can give the pointers on what works on the Rebased/Pleroma/Mastodon/Akkoma side of software on the Fedi:

Fediverse works best when everyone uses their own instance. Obviously impossible, since you need to be at least a bit technically savvy and maybe shell out a few bucks a month at most. So a lot of smaller instances is better than one big one - That's the name of the game.

Ok but content wise we need the power of the number. Reddit has an immense user base. So there's an immense community where you ask literally anything. I dont mind paying at all. I pay for allot of services that i like. I donate money to opensourcesoftware etc. I am building my own lemmy instance to help to help the community. But since the problem for beehaw is the modding part of bad actors/trolls/spammers. There must be something a man can do to help :) I like it here. Kinda more than I liked reddit. Because it is up my favorite alley. Open and coming from the community.

@Stijn Sign up to be a mod or something and do it for free. I guess that helps as well.

I will do that.
