MODERATORS

If you create a sub on Lemmy, are you responsible for its moderation? If so, how much of a pain is that, really? (lemmy.ml)

The title, really.

On Reddit, I was one of the ubiquitous lurkers. I'd like to maybe participate a little more on Lemmy, now that I'm here. I might even like to start a community, but I'm concerned about what kind of a commitment I might be getting myself into. I really have quite enough BS in my life without inviting more.

I'd be grateful for any advice, experience, or warnings folks might have. Thanks, and have a good one!

Edit: Thanks everyone for your responses! Maybe I will try my hand at a community or two!

That's not what I'm talking about though. Another user mentioned multireddits. If there are multiple technology communities on different instances you might want to subscribe to content from all of them with a single action, even if the content is moderated separately in each of them.
