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.

I can help out if needed, but I only use Lemmy on a third party app so I’m not sure if mod tools are available.
I’ll vouch for PoppinKREAM as a fantastic mod candidate for whatever it’s worth.
Considering how active they were on /r/soccer, I think they’re a great choice.
(Assuming it’s not someone else who claimed the username hahaha)
Unless it’s a phenomenal impostor then based on demeanor and posting style I’d say it’s the same person.
