Posted here 14 / 15 days ago with requests for those subreddits. Admins have ignored my request but responded to requests by others made more recently.

At least give me a “no” if it’s a no, please. My account here doesn’t have a ton of activity, but my u/7101334 account on Reddit is very active. I want to use Lemmy more and Reddit less, but if there’s an apparent stigma towards drug users here, let me know so I can pass and keep looking for a better place.

    The communities are yours now. Sorry for dropping the ball. I scan this community occasionally, but passed right over your posts for some reason.

      No worries, nothing to be sorry about, I was just concerned it might be due to the nature of the communities in question. Sorry if it came off as impatient (I am impatient, but that’s no excuse to show it lmao). I’ll take care of them and hopefully get them active. Thank you!

    Wonder if there’s any place like !communityrequest@sh.itjust.works, but for Lemmy World. Alternatively, maybe you could create another community, be it on your current instance or on another. For that option also, never seen drama arise from redundant communities in the ~2 years I’m around.

      It seems like they just handle the requests here, you can find others that the admins actually responded to. And I don’t think these would even be truly redundant since the ones I’m requesting are totally inactive (even though c/weed still allows posts, oddly, even though they have no mods).

      I’ll find another instance if Lemmy.World wants to promote and sustain stigma against drug users (the same stigma currently being used to murder people in the Caribbean), but the two communities I’m requesting were pretty slow even when they were still active. I’m concerned that, on a smaller instance, they’d get no traction at all. I’ll give it a shot if it’s the only option though.
