French here, happy to help out.

Welcome to the team! That was the fastest time I received interest in the moderator role :)

(also, I see that you focus on languages โˆ’ you can mark Italian as covered if there's no native mod, I can manage at least well enough to know if something needs to be moderated!)

I also volunteer as a mod if there is a need for another.

I'm a Finn who currently is living in another EU country and have been increasingly replacing and searching for european alternatives to products / services.

Thank you for stepping up for the role. Now we got 3/24 of the offical eu languages covered. Hopefully a German from feddit.org will express interest as well ;)

Fingers crossed! I live in a German speaking country but unfortunately my German is limited to expressing my frustration in the grocery store :D

[โ€“] Sunshine@lemmy.ca 2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

We got our German friend secured!

Ah this that is a pity, but hope they can fix it soon. Lemmy devs have recently added a lot of neat things and hope this is on their todo.

If you still need people, I can help if you need it, am from Spain although there are not much Spanish content here (no problem with English).

[โ€“] Sunshine@lemmy.ca 4 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Hey I granted you the ability to moderate! Thanks for stepping up! You're our first Spaniard in the group.
