    As a rule of thumb, there typically are very few people clamoring for volunteer leader positions. It’s a constant problem you see even in irl non-profit organizations, unless they’re fairly big/famous

    It just turns out that, it’s actually just a lot of responsibility and work. Most people realize this, and don’t have the capacity to do the work, so often there even are no candidates for the leader positions… until someone reluctantly steps up because otherwise the organization would die

    At least, that’s my experience in the real life organizations and clubs I’ve volunteered in
