How difficult is it to be a moderator?

kaine@lemmy.world to No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world – 18 points –

I'm a reddit refugee considering spinning up a lemmy instance. I've always been a lurker and I want to be more active in this new community. My biggest deterrent in starting an instance and adding some communities (I know I don't have to have communities on an instance, but I want to!) is moderating users and posts. How much time does it take? How often do trolls need to be dealt with? What are the other things I'm not thinking about? Am I overthinking this?

Tried to attach a pic, had some issues. Dog tax link: Iris & Riley

Careful, that link leads to your real name.

Created a Pixelfed account and updated the link, I'll get this Fediverse figured out one way or another! I really appreciate your replies, thank you!

Thanks! I forgot Google Photos included that. I'll find another way to post. Cheers!
