I don’t get why anyone views being a moderator like ownership. It seems to attract a lot of narcissism in that mindset. I don’t think mod posts are relevant to growing a community. Quite the opposite, I think forced posts are worse than none. It is a matter of how the community resonates with users and the total number of people on the platform. The more niche the group, the harder it is to find an audience. The community belongs to users that post. The only community truly owned by a mod is the one where they are the only one that posts. Mods serve the community not the other way around.
