I'm mostly concerned about https://lemmy.world/c/newhampshire because I'm from there, but they're on a range of location and interest communities. Where's the line for community mod-squatting?

The Elon_Musk account has been banned for community squatting and being inactive for almost two weeks.

If there is no activity in a community, it will be purged so that others can use the name.

If you would like to claim one of the communities, please reply to this comment.

User buelldozer has done the same thing with several communities, apparently reserving them for the mods of the corresponding subreddits.

I'd like to see c/sexover30 active and would take it over to see that happen.

!scotland too - I messaged him to see if he'll pass. No reply yet

I've sent you a message regarding the Scotland community. Overall, the team is working on standards for creating communities. Creating dozens to then "squat" will be addressed.

Ew. Can we put a Fediverse vote up to ban Elon from everything? Sorry... but not sorry?
