@asklemmy What is up with people creating Communities and then not even posting a single post in them?

Like wouldn’t you want to be able to grow a community by doing a post here and there, even just a welcome post to say why you created the community would make sense wouldn’t it?

    but it belongs to the community.

    That I would argue against. While the admins are willing to override mods, they are also willing to run their servers against the community’s wishes.

      By that I mean that communities can and do migrate away from bad admins. They also can and do start their own instances. The structure of the fediverse means that whoever runs the server holds the ultimate power on their own server, but they can’t really weild much leverage over the users.
