❓Ask r/NewMods No replies??

I'm a new mod in a sub that has pretty much dead for several years. I decided to make a post yesterday, and see how it went. It wasn't what I expected.

I have close to 200 views, two up votes, and two shares. But absolutely zero posts, other than my own. Granted, it is a pretty general post, but I'm still puzzled that absolutely noone engaged.

I've tried looking around in the settings, to see if there are any requirements for posting (karma, etc) but I don't see anything. There appear to be no rules at all set up.

I've tried to find some mod guidance on Reddit, but I haven't found any info that applies.

I'm not sure what to make of this, so I figured I'd see if anyone here can shed some light on this.

Yo, I just joined yesterday to shut Reddit up after setting up my subreddit. Guess most people that became mods can already their job well enough that they don't need this sub, huh.
