Ironically it demonstrates what happens when something is too centralised
I wouldn't say it was centralized. They repeatedly begged over and over for volunteers to help moderate and even administrate the instance. Nobody stepped up, it seems.
They reached out to the community. The community declined their requests.
One guy stepped up as an admin. It's the owner of the new instance. He didn't have the necessary access to go in and pay the bills or have the deep server level access to fix things that went wrong.
He's got a plan for his backup admins.
