This is the subreddit I'll miss most. I'm at about 120 days after 20 years of drinking because of the people in that sub inspiring me. I would start a similar community here but I don't really feel like I could handle running something like that.

Congrats on 120 days! It will be two years on July 8 for me.

I had the same thought about spinning one up here. I’m not sure I’d be capable of running a community like that especially with how much of a tight ship they’ve got running.

I wonder if it would be worth posting and asking about it there or DM’ing a mod perhaps. Maybe I’ll give that a go.

I say start the community, and make a post welcoming arriving redditors, letting them know you don't have moderators yet, to please offer if they can help, but that they have found their community gathering place and it's gonna be OK.

That is what I tried to do

We are starting that sub here on lemmy.world. I started one on lemmy.ml before I found the one here. Hopefully the creator will approve some mods, but we can definitely support each other in a federated environment.
