Thought this required its own post as we might need to create a new community.
I managed to get in contact with the creator of the community (same username on reddit).
I don’t think he’s coming back to lemmy. He’s offered to delete the community if that frees up the name for us to create an identical community on lemmy.world. I don’t know if that’s possible or if the community can be transferred to another user instead.
Staying on lemmy.world seems like a good idea imo as new arrivals will gravitate towards that.
Anyone have any ideas of the best way forward?
Anyone fancy being an admin/mod lol?
Edit: He might not be permanently gone. Just coming back every once in a while.
This to me seems like an issue of educating the people better. Having everything on lemmy.world seems detrimental in the long run, especially for lemmy.world
That’s true to some extent, but one community at one instance is always going to end up being the most prominent one in the end regardless, and at least Ruud has experience running large Fediverse instances.
