I doubt you’d be overwhelmed by modding duties any time soon, due to the size of the userbase.
I created !bicycles@lemmy.ca, which is already around 1.3k subs, and so far I’ve had to give a warning to a troll once, and there’s been a single reported comment. As long as you’re willing to scroll through your sub every couple of hours, that should be enough to adequately moderate for the time being.


If I search for comments, I’ll see stuff from whenever, but it works as it should when searching for posts.
