I cannot believe we don't have any sort of community for classic vehicles or machinery. There are many on Facebook that all are very popular and I think it might help migrate some users to Lemmy.

I personally have major interests in pre 1970s utilitarian vehicles and machinery but any sort of representation could be beneficial.

You can create it.

This community is for requesting mod access to existing communities which have been abandoned by their mods.

Ah I see. If I was unable to moderate it is there solutions for that?

We prefer that communities have active mods so that admins don’t have to handle every report themselves, but it’s not a big deal if they don’t. Traffic is still low enough that it’s not that much work.

Oh I see I didn't know admins also had some authority in the community that feels a bit better. An hour or a few a night might actually be active enough then I imagine?

I plan to make a community tomorrow in such case. Thank you!

Yes, each report goes to the admins as well as the community’s mods. Often we catch them before the mods do.
