This subreddit is a list of inactive subreddits or ones with no mods. This list can be referenced to maybe try to find a subreddit you might want to bring back.

If you know of an inactive subreddit not on the list, please post a link to it.

If a subreddit is already on this list but has recently become active once again please message the moderators using the link in the sidebar, this will help us to change the flair as appropriate as quickly as possible.

If you see a subreddit that you would like to moderate, please request it on r/RedditRequest if it meets the requirements. If you become a moderator of a subreddit on our list and intent to make it reactive please inform us so that we may remove it from the list. Thank you. ###POST FLAIR RUNDOWN Requestable: Moderators have not had any public activity in the past 60 days, so assuming they haven't had any private activity in that time either, the subreddit in question meets the criteria to be requested on r/RedditRequest. Also applies to subreddits where all mods have been suspended, or subreddits that have no mods.

Requestable soon: Mods on the subreddit have not been active within the past 40 to 60 days and will meet the 60 day inactivity requirement (to request the sub on r/RedditRequest) within the next couple of weeks.

Inactive but not requestable: Mods on the subreddit have not been visibly active on Reddit as of 20 to 40 days ago, therefore not reaching the 60 day requirement for r/RedditRequest.

Possibly requestable: The subreddit's mods appear to be inactive but have come back when their subreddit was requested in the past specifically to say they were still active. They probably have private activity that isn't visible on their user page.

Subreddit is inactive, mods are not: What it says on the tin. Nobody is posting in the subreddit, but the mods are active elsewhere on Reddit so the subreddit can't be requested.

Sub is restricted, mods are active–not requestable: This usually indicates that the mod(s) is not active on that particular sub, though there is visible activity elsewhere. The sub is not requestable in this case. This flair is usually applied by the mods after going through the subs and adjusting the status of each post.

No longer inactive: Either the old mods have come back, new mods have joined the subreddit, and/or the sub has had more activity lately.

Private: Self-explanatory; the subreddit has been set to private. In this case it is unsure if the subreddit is requestable, but you can try requesting or first messaging the mods.
