🎉Happy 2-year-anniversary, folks!🎉

Thank you to everyone who has posted, commented, and voted over the past two years. The community would not be what it is without you!

Thanks also to the sh.itjust.works admins for keeping this server running smoothly. This community could not exist without you.

This community has had a bit of mod turnover since we started, and I'm looking to grow the team a bit. Would anyone be willing to help out?

This is also an opportune time to solicit feedback and suggest changes. Any general feedback or suggestions?

Thank you all for participating in this community, and here's to the next two years!

Hi there, Canigou from France. Space exploration enthusiast. I've been mostly lurking on the sub until now but I'd be happy to try out the moderator role !

Thanks for volunteering! Do you have a Matrix account? Compared to Lemmy comments and direct messages, it would make for easier communications, especially between multiple moderators.

I can make one. Do you have preferred instance ?

[–] threelonmusketeers@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

No strong preference! I'm on matrix.org, so as long as the instance you choose federates with that one (and it seems that most do), we shouldn't have any issues.

@burble@lemmy.dbzer0.com, @clothes@lemmy.world, would either of you be interested?

[–] clothes@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Just sent you a message!

I don't have the mental bandwidth to become a mod, so thank you for your efforts!

Until now I've been too lazy to look into what rules/guidelines exist for this community. Am I now right in thinking there aren't any? (If so, I'm not complaining!) Or am I just not finding them (as an inexperienced Lemmy user)?

The thing I was going to look into was any posting guidelines. How significant should something be to warrant its own post? For example, this tweet includes a video with an F9 barge landing perspective that I don't remember seeing before.

FWIW, my own feeling is that I'd like a quarterly "General Discussion Thread" (as with the equivalent Subreddit), to gather up all the minor stuff.

Are posts automatically 'published' or do they go through moderation first? (If this is something I should be able to determine myself, if I knew more about Lemmy, LMK and I'll go & do some reading!)

P.S. My thanks to you and all the team for all your efforts.
