    If someone wants to create an English speaking Europe community on feddit.org I would certainly not be against it. Ultimatly it is up to the subscribers to decide where to go.

    I pinned this thread in the community, so people can promote their proposed alternatives here.

      So from that I gather that you personally do not have an interest in moving the community over to it.

        I would much rather someone else takes over moderation, yes. Both because of various federated moderation bugs in Lemmy making it hard to moderate a community that isn’t on your home instance and because I have way to many communities that I moderate already.

        If needed, I would be willing to help with moderation, but not be the main moderator of such a new community.

          To be honest, I didn’t volunteer because it’s a news community with a large audience. Debates can get nasty, and that’s something I try to avoid.

          I guess a lot of other people are in the same case, and why you were the only mod here

            /r/europe became pretty much a Nazi cesspool and I feel on the fediverse it could quickly become a Tankie cesspool. I personally would not have nerves for that either. Would be sad to see this community die if the instance inevitably vanishes though.
