I think I'm done being a mod (lemmy.ca)

So yeah, my life is a pile of, well you can guess. Its not that the job is hard, nor is it overwhelming for me, however my life is crap and my mental state is very dark, so I do not believe I can mod this community the way it should be run. Again, there is not a lot of work to do, and the admin team seems to be on top of it much more then I am, so I think we should bring one other person into the team, then I can leave without feeling like I'm abandoning the community. So my idea is to take some names of folks who are willing to mod, and then I put it to a vote, the top one or two get the job

Hmm… most mods seem to thrive off of being mentally unstable. Thank you for your hard work and always remember to take care of yourself first!

Most other moderators I met or talked with in person from Reddit were raging alcoholics, myself included. The subs I was involved with had a community that was... eh... very unique. (Reptile owners themselves tend to be a special breed, to say the least.)

that’s awesome man! My girlfriend bought my son a leopard gecko back in 2018 and so that means I’ve been taking care of it ever since. Even started breeding dubia roaches for it (or whatever they’re called) back in 2020. All natural ecosystem with Rollie pollies and all that good stuff. Damn lizard barely ever comes out of its cave though but it’s always let us hold it and has never amputated its tail

Reptiles are interesting creatures, for sure. (I still have a female chameleon and bearded dragon. My male cham died of old age last year.) I never got into breeding feeders, but that is a really good route to avoid the excessive supplementation that is super common.

I was a mod of /r/chameleons and still technically the owner of /r/chameleonholdingstuff, but I haven't been on Reddit for a long while. Strangely enough, some mods tried to pull me back into the fold a few months ago, but Reddit is just a shit show and I don't want any part of it. The /r/reptiles mods seemed a little more on the sane side though.
