Creating a new community isn't necessary. Admin could transfer control of the existing one to a new mod team if the current one can't be arsed running it.

Since I just realised that I became a Mod here (when did this even happend? Is there no notification or something?)

I can ask. But it's still their choice. Maybe they want to move as much members as possible, maybe they want to keep it as some sort of archive. Maybe this was part of the Deal with Ada? I don't know. The only thing I can offer you is to ask. Would that be okay?

Yeah, I suspect you're right and that the intent is to bring as much of the existing userbase across as possible, but it'd be nice to know what's going on. It's entirely possible they did reach out to people privately and nobody wanted to moderate 196@LBZ, but I doubt it.

Whatever the case may be, I would appreciate it if you could get an answer as to why that was the course of action chosen.

No Problem! :D Now that I figured out that I'm also Part of the Team I feel a bit more confidend to ask :P

I just send a Message and will Post here as soon as I know more :D

Keep us posted, genuinely curious what their answer if's going to be 😄

As soon as I get an answer, I'll let you know :D As I said, I feel a heads-up with "why, what, and how" before the move would have spared us all some trouble, but now it is what it is, and I will try to provide some answers.

it is what it is

I'm really not sure the majority of members of the community agree with that statement, but let's see!

Hey! I don't got a "personal" Answer, but there was an Update Post.

(I just saw you there but felt the need to "honor" our agreement)

Thank you. Really. A lot of folks do seem pretty miffed at the general lack of communication on this topic.

Hey! There was an Update. Not to my Message but to the Situation in general.

[–] Walk_blesseD@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 2 days ago
