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.

Here's the conversation if anyone is interested.

Would it make more sense to have a football/soccer instance, like maybe feddit.football? Then take load off the general instance here. Could have all the club communities and ones for world cups etc..

I'd be tempted to host it, I already host feddit.uk so I know quite a bit about hosting a decently sized lemmy instance. Not sure if it is big enough for an instance yet but if people want it I'd do it
