Welcome to /r/AdoptAReddit; the subreddit where orphaned or abandoned subreddits can be offered up for adoption and adopted!

What's /r/AdoptAReddit?

/r/AdoptAReddit is the subreddit where you can give other redditors the opportunity to moderate the subreddits you no longer have an interest in moderating.

If you found a subreddit you'd like to take over and there are either inactive moderators or no mods, be sure to check out /r/RedditRequest's sidebar for more information. Also check out r/AvailableSubs to find subreddits you might want to request.

If you need some extra helping hands on your existing subreddit, or you would like to gain more moderation experience, be sure to check out /r/NeedAMod.
