Looking for someone to take over the unofficial #tildes matrix room
A little over a year ago I created an unofficial matrix room for the tildes community. I believed at the time, and still do, that the infrastructure supporting the community should be founded on open, sustainable software, and matrix was an interesting new solution in this space similar to the Discords and Slacks of the world. Though the room is bridged with the IRC chat activity has remained relatively low compared to Discord.
Unfortunately I haven't had the time to properly moderate this channel. Though the community's involvement there has remained civil I do not think I'm active enough to ensure things stay that way.
As such I am looking for an interested person or persons to take over this channel over the next week or so and if no suitable replacements are found will be shutting the room down until further notice.
Thanks everyone,
Hi!
I'm founder of the IRC channel, #matrix on irc.freenode.org, which is bridged to this Matrix room. I'm also on Matrix myself, so I could take over if nobody else is able or willing. I would prefer someone else to take on the ownership, as I dislike being the sole point of failure on the freedom-respecting Tildes chats.
I am interested, including ownership (though I would prefer not to be the sole mod).
Ideally you want a few mods in different timezones for maximum uptime and also different homeservers (even if these are just alt accounts) as this allows the room to still have some moderation when a particular homeserver is down.
I am active on matrix and volunteer.
