MODERATORS
 

So it's probably time to add some moderators, not necessarily because things are out of hand or anything, but because I'd like someone to actually nurture this community like I don't have time to. I'm talking about, for example, having regular pinned conversational live update threads, forming rules, all sorts of community building elements. On a lot of these it would probably be helpful to look at how the mod team over at r/Ukraine has handled things.

More specifically I'd really like to find someone Ukrainian who speaks the language to join the team, but that might be a bit much to ask at least in the short term.

Either way, consider this an invitation to apply if you think you'd be a good fit and you'd like to help nurture this community and help cleaning up spam and vile conduct. You'll need to message here in the thread since I believe Lemmy works in funny ways and you promote people through comments.

I'm eyeballing this hoping it gets to levels of r/ukraine and r/ukraine_conflict

I've been supplementing that with https://www.pravda.com.ua/eng/news/ That seems to help.

Wondered about that "Pravda" part (the name of a notoriously lying state magasine from the URSS/Russia) and also about the .com. being in the middle and not the end. It seems .ua means Ukraine so it should be an Ukrainian site at least. I mean maybe 'everyone' knows this website and I do not, if so apologies!

Any info gladly received!

And if course Slava Ukraine!!

Ukrainska Pravda was founded by Georgiy Gongadze who was murdered by the Ukrainian government in the year 2000 for digging into corruption. The website/news agency has retained their core beliefs in spreading truth. Musk wanted to buy their .Com domain a few years back to start his own Pravda, but they said no
