If the only mod on a Lemmy community is inactive is there any point in posting there? Or should I make a new commuinity? (lemmy.world)

Sorry if this is a dumb question. I'm unsure what the procedure is.

My understanding is instance admins can change moderators, so depends on the instance the community is hosted on.

Yes this works on many instances. I believe some instances even have a dedicated community for this but I can't remember any right now.. I think if you search for "support" communities each instance pretty much has one and you can request to take over a community whos mod is inactive.
