I’m guessing a lot of the NSFW subs saw this as the final straw and just went to nsfw lemmy instead. Since they seem to be pravalent in all the “we need mods” posts.
r/mensfashion is one of the bigger subreddits where this is happening. I read through the post. Everyone who expressed interest was getting down voted like crazy.
I haven’t even looked honestly, just looked up the account. I don’t really care whether they fill them or not, I only go back to reddit now for /r/sbcgaming and /r/ereader since those communities haven’t really picked up here yet (though maybe they will in time).
Edit - I just looked. It seems to be a lot of people saying “I wouldn’t be a good mod, no thanks” or “let me be a mod, I’ll totally let people post lewd pics,” “pick me, I’ll reinstate the old mods,” “I’ll gladly abuse my power, sure” and stuff of that variety. So no, doesn’t look like it’s a big rush to fill the spots. Mostly a lot of snark for the majority of them. MaleFashionAdvice seemed to be an exception with people looking to take the mod spot and they were all ridiculously downvoted.
Edit 2 - I especially liked this one:
u/spez can take his IPO and shove it up his ass. Join us at Lemmy. We can build it into something corporate dickwads can’t take from us.
Good point, but it looks like it’s still ongoing.

Ha, one of them is The Monkey’s Paw. How apropos.
What are the replies like? Some have a lot so it doesn’t appear they’re struggling at all.
