Any luck getting the ask historian mods to switch over to lemmy. That I think would tip the scale permanently

What’s special about those mods?

They moderate rigorously.

Participating in one of their threads is like attending a university course.

Most people don’t have the context to actually participate in the discussions, but the quality is on a completely different level.

The answers on that subreddit are probably the highest quality answers on all of Reddit.

The mods are very strict and keep the quality exceptionally high

Although I also doubt that it will happen until Lemmy gets some good moderation tools first. In its current state, it wouldn’t quite fit what they need to do with the sub, especially with the heavy moderation that they would need to do.

Any type of automatic moderation. It is a godsend for managing a community as you don’t have to worry about content with or breaking those roles as the bot(s) check it for you.
