Apply to Moderate
Moderators review the submission queue. Anyone can apply — no credentials required.
Moderators review community submissions before they go live. This means checking for spam and formatting issues — not judging whether content is correct. The community does that. Reviews typically take a few minutes each. You can moderate as much or as little as fits your schedule.
